NASA Solar System Ambassador Sarah Vise Presents .... The Cosmic Canvas: Paintings of the Universe.

Dive into the vibrant wonders of the Universe with our hands-on activity, "Nebula Spin Art" led by NASA Solar System Ambassador Sarah Vise. Participants will discover the fascinating process behind the formation of nebulae - massive clouds of gas and dust in space. Using paint and a spinner, they'll craft their very own colorful model nebula, each one as unique as their artists - just like real nebulae!  This fun, interactive experience is perfect for budding astronomers and artists alike, sparking creativity while exploring the colors of outer space.

Space is limited: register in advance to reserve your spot and receive reminders. Registration will guarantee your seat until the event begins. Accessibility needs? Please contact ask@acpl.info as soon as possible - we’d love to help.
