Discover Space[AR]T in the Sky: An Augmented Reality Sky Hunt
STEMarts Lab invites you to explore our interactive Augmented Reality Sky Hunt. Visit each of our six AR stations, point your phone to the sky, and discover our Space[AR]T — artist and student-created animated 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 six space models, and collect your reward—your very own AR object to take home! Our STEMarts Youth Ambassadors will be on hand to guide your augmented reality journey.
Kids can visit our Space[AR]T Drawing Station to meet LANL Astrophysicist Dr. Andrea Albert, (Friday) and NASA Solar System Ambassador, Arwen Hubbard (Sunday), hear their space stories, and ask questions. Have fun drawing space-inspired designs on your own Space[AR]T paper models.
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.
Schedule:
Friday: 3-6pm (Meet Astrophysicist, Dr. Andrea Albert)
Saturday: 2-6pm
Sunday: 12-4pm(Meet NASA Solar System Ambassador, Arwen Hubbard)
