Let your imagination run wild as you help build the ultimate wildlife park!
An anonymous company has donated a block of land, and it’s up to you to bring this wildlife park to life! First, we’ll explore the Museum’s Wild Life gallery to spark your imagination. Then, it’s time to head to the Minecraft studio, where you’ll design incredible spaces for all kinds of creatures, both extinct and living!
During this action-packed workshop, you will:
- Use basic keyboard functions (basic computer skills required)
- Explore the Museum's Wild Life gallery
- Design and create your own wildlife park in Minecraft
- Craft your own mod to enhance gameplay
- Share your creations with the group
Participants will be playing Minecraft on a PC, not a gaming console. Participants will need to have a basic knowledge of using computer keyboards and mouse.
*All technical equipment will be provided. However, please bring a 4GB USB to take home your work.
