Dr Anna Ploszajski is an award-winning materials scientist, author, presenter, comedian and storyteller. She's a materials generalist, equally fascinated by metals, plastics, ceramics, glasses and substances from the natural world. Her work centres around making science accessible and fun for audiences.
Join Anna on a material odyssey as she recounts a scientist's adventure through the world of craft through stories, stand-up comedy and demonstrations. Featuring local makers, artists, movers and shakers, this is an exploration of the material world from the sub-atomic to the sublime.
Will it be sciencey? Yes, but not too much, hopefully. Is it overly-ambitious? Almost certainly. Will you come away inspired?, that's a certainty!
