We invite you to discover the Crater Space! Through a visit guided by our educational team, students can explore the interactive exhibition and better understand how the Earth was formed, how volcanoes are formed, the types of eruptive activity, volcanic materials, how they are studied and controlled, and what role volcanoes have had (and have) in the Garrotxa. In addition, inside the same room, you can see the outcrop of the Puig del Roser volcano, where the Espai Cráter is located, and travel through four amazing volcanoes through the new immersive experience Crater 360.

Pigments of nature
What colors do we find in nature? We observe our environment to discover them, reveal how natural pigments were extracted in the past and we will experiment to extract our pigments from fruits and vegetables. Then, we will see paintings of volcanic landscapes made by renowned artists from La Garrotxa and we will become artists to make a work of art with our natural paints. An activity where science and art go hand in hand.
