Hobart Glow Tour (Ladies Only Event)

Join us for a truly memorable night that not many people can say they've experienced.  

Self Confessed Glow Girl Dr Lisa Gershwin has recently opened Hobart Glow Tours.  Did you know that many living organisms have tiny blobules of fluorescent pigments in their fur, feathers, leaves, and petals? And when these pigments are activated by UV light, they fluoresce in unimaginable colours. Bubblegum pink. Sky blue. Minty green. Scarlet red. It is, quite literally, to see things in a whole new light, and it invites us to imagine what else we don't see.

You just won't believe your eyes!  Check out some pics and more info on Lisa's website: http://www.glowshowtas.com/biofluorescence

During this totally unique experience we'll explore a local forested parkland with special torches provided by Lisa to see what's glowing in the dark.   We'll be hoping to find fluorescent Marsupials, Owls, Invertebrates, Flowers, Lichens, Fungi, and Mosses.  Perhaps described…
