SPACE[AR]T in the Sky

STEMarts Lab invites you to explore our interactive space-inspired augmented reality station.

Point your phone to the sky, and discover our artist and student-created animated 3D models that appear in the sky and land in front of you. Each art piece explores our relationship to space through the unique lens of our community and culture. Capture the moment by snapping a photo or selfie with all five space models, and collect your reward—your very own SPACE [AR]Tobject to take home!

Our STEMarts team will be on hand to guide your augmented reality journey.


STEMarts Lab is a non profit STEAM youth leadership program. We use science, art, and technology to create immersive experiences that imagine a better future for us all.
