Ancient Ear Hair: How Do Crystals Form?

Art at The Met is made of many materials, including natural materials like minerals. Environmental conditions
can affect these minerals, and even make an ancient statue grow ear hair!
Learn about the science of crystals and salts, and how we use our knowledge to protect the art. 
MetKids Microscope is a show about the science behind the art (and the art behind the science!) at The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
Learn true stories about real discoveries from scientists at the Museum, and do some experiments on your own!
