Hello, bees 2.0! | Hive Installation and Honey Extraction at the MOME Campus

A year ago, Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design launched its own apiary with ecological and educational goals. The aim was to ensure that the university community could contribute to environmental sustainability not just in theory, but also in practice. Through bee-focused activities and educational programs, the initiative also seeks to shape students’ perspectives on nature and sustainability.

The university’s apiary began with two bee colonies – the Tót and the Mézga family – and not long after the MOME bees got to work, the university produced its own honey, "MOMÉZ”. Following several successful workshops and communal honey harvests, the colony will expand with two additional bee families this year, on 30 April, in celebration of Bee Day! 

During the event, led by beekeeper Tamás Kutasi, we’ll discuss the crucial role bees play in nature, take a look inside the hives, get to know the new colonies, and even extract fresh honey.  

The event is in Hungarian only. 

Participation is safe; closed clothing is recommended.
