Imagine Exhibitions, a leader in worldwide travelling exhibitions and entertainment, has announced that it is collaborating with renowned artist Sean Kenney and Science North, a prestigious science centre in Ontario, Canada.
The collaboration will create two new immersive exhibitions, Brick Masters Studio and Brick Planet, which are both built from Lego bricks. The experiences effectively incorporate cutting-edge STEAM content to enhance overall learning.
Engaging STEAM content
Diverse STEAM materials and interactives will be implemented throughout the displays in this unique collaboration, which combines Kenney’s imagination and vision, Imagine’s innovators, and scientists and educators from Science North. Visitors will be guided through the exhibitions by interactive and engaging experiences which explore each show’s learning objectives and messages.
Science North will leverage its extensive combined experience in science communication, exhibit production, and design in its role as content leader. Imagine Exhibitions will draw on its 15 years of experience in producing highly successful exhibitions that cater to a wide age range. The collaborative effort aims to make sure that the collection of artwork on show captivates visitors and inspires a new generation of scientists, engineers, artists, and inventors.
Both exhibitions are in the development stage. Science North is set to host the North American debut of Brick Masters Studio early next year.
Tom Zaller, president and CEO of Imagine Exhibitions, comments: “This collaboration embodies a shared vision to cultivate curiosity, creativity, and a passion for science through interactive learning encounters. Imagine Exhibitions, Sean Kenney, and Science North are dedicated to crafting a remarkable and impactful journey into the captivating realm of Sean Kenney’s Sculptures made of Lego bricks and interactive STEAM-based experiences for all visitors.”
Kenney says: “I’m incredibly excited to bring these two new exhibitions to families and children around the world! Developing them together with Science North and Imagine Exhibitions brings a wealth of integrity, knowledge, and experience that will make these exhibits educational, memorable, and tons of fun for everyone that visits.”
Ashley Larose, CEO of Science North, adds: “We are thrilled to collaborate with Imagine Exhibitions and Sean Kenney, leveraging our expertise in exhibit development to create two immersive experiences. By captivating, inspiring, and educating visitors, these exhibitions will ignite curiosity and passion for science, offering enriching educational experiences for all ages.”
