CHILDREN’S SPRING BREAK WORKSHOP

February 6, 2019

Posted In: Children's Programs, Events

Join us for this special, one-day Spring Break workshop in collaboration with Aspen Science Center! At the intersection of art and science, we’ll observe patterns that exist in nature, and manipulate patterns in order to create art. Learn how science can inspire and improve artistic endeavors, and how you can explore scientific concepts as an artist. You’ll use scientific skills to learn about the behavior of materials, and apply what you discover toward creating. Together we’ll investigate patterns that show up when a pendulum swings, or in how the properties of light affect your art, then we’ll design, paint, and build products that may surprise you. Find out what you can invent when you blend the creativity of an artist and a scientist!
