New Year, New Media

We already have the Herbology blog and the herbarium on twitter (@aristolochia), but from 2016 we will also be contributing images to the Manchester Museum’s Instagram account. So if you’re on Instagram and are interested in museums, herbaria or just beautiful things – please take a look at our images.

We challenged our inventive Visitor Team staff to find the beautiful botany on the galleries at Manchester Museum and share it on twitter. Here are a few highlights!
Pretty good, eh? I wonder what they’ll spot next?

This week is Museum Week on Twitter. The Herbarium has a very active twitter account – you can see it here. Our twitter name is @aristolochia.
Here are the images we posted yesterday – the theme was a day in the life.
