3-D TECHNOLOGY EXPO
Saturday, August 18–Sunday, August 26:12–4pm
Art and science will come together in an explosion of fun this summer as we explore our world in 3-D! Have fun exploring your creative side and learn about the latest 3-D imaging technologies. It all starts with our special new KEVA Planks exhibit where you can use one of the idea cards to get yourself started, study one of the display pieces by structure artists to gain inspiration, or just let your creative juices flow. Looking for a different challenge? Don't forget the K'NEX exhibit where the building challenges are different, and the fun never stops. Wonder what a trained professional could do with 1,000 KEVA Planks? Check out cool KEVA creations from architects and builders from around Rochester to see the science that goes into their art.
Come see our new MakerBotTM robot, the ultimate 3-D printer. The MakerBotTM can print anything you can imagine with its easy-to-use software. Come see the MakerBotTM bring your own creation to life! Click here to learn about the MakerBotTM and see it in action.
Want to take advantage of the beautiful summer day? No problem. Take the fun outside and create sidewalk art around the RMSC with 3-D chalk, or escape the heat and come inside to view stereoscopic images from the RMSC's collection to learn how people have been creating 3-D images for nearly 180 years. Maybe your creation could inspire the future of imaging!
Come build your future with us!
