ImagArena
Thursday, April 18 at 3 pm
ImagArena® combines the spirit of an art program, the materials of a building workshop, and the framework of a video game to provide an experience that engages everyone. Ages 6 - 12. ImagArena is a total multimedia experience, more similar to a futuristic training simulation than to a traditional building workshop. Each ImagArena session is divided into rounds. Each round features different building materials, such as Lego®, PlusPlus®, and more. The participants are guided through the rounds by a video-game-like system that presents new materials and challenges. It is a new approach to art and STEM education, one that releases the imaginative potential of every individual.
Tim Merle is the creator of ImagArena®, an imagination program for kids, families, and adults.
