Lab Liftoff: Light Art

Join us for a day long skills camp experimenting with circuits to bring artwork to life with LED lights.

What can I expect at…Lab Liftoff: Light Art?

Children will learn the basics of creating and operating simple circuits using conductive materials including aluminum, copper tape and conductive paint.

After successfully building a range of circuits, they will create pieces of art that can light up. They can then add actions to their circuits like illuminating a house when the door is opened.

This is a unique opportunity to learn how to build circuits and apply inventive and creative thinking to develop interactive pieces of artwork.
