Skylab Revolution is an interactive installation in the Children’s Garden at Evergreen Brick Works. It features a space ship with 3 individual activities for kids to engage with whole exploring the park from the perspective an astronaut. There is a kaleidoscope, periscope, and microscope that offer each a unique view of the garden. Kids are encouraging to experiment and uncover the environment from a new perspective!

Facilitators will be on hand to encourage participants to use the spaceship equipment to investigate, experiment, and discover their own unique view of the space around them. This installation was created by Little Dada with support from Hand Eye Society.

We’re also looking for volunteers! If you are interested in helping to bring this program to life, please fill out the following form before July 15 and we will get back to you ASAP.

WHAT

What’s Camp Make-A-Game you might ask? Camp Make-A-Game is a camp that teaches campers how to create digital and physical games. Mornings are spent indoors with digital screen instruction, teaching kids to use point-and-click game creation tools. Because these tools don’t require coding, most of the instruction can focus on design principles like game mechanics or game feel and not just be focused on technical hurdles. Afternoons are spent outdoors, discussing and playing physical games like tag and soccer – and then the kids will re-design the rules and play the modified games, learning about game design while getting some exercise. By the end of the week, they’ll be game makers!
