STEM Day at The Peale
June 8 @ 12:00 pm - 2:30 pm EDT
Join us for an In-Person STEM Day in Baltimore!
Join us and experience history in a brand-new way! Visit the new exhibit at The Peale and explore this multisensory exhibit that will include 3D-printed versions of the fossils originally collected by the Peales and early American leaders. In 2021, Dr.Means and the artist Maggie Colangelo published Founding Monsters, an innovative comic book about the surprising role that archaeology played in the politics and understanding of species extinction at the dawn of the United States. To bring the graphic novel to life, VCU student and artist Anna Carter is sculpting various elements associated with the Founding Monsters comics, making the 2D drawings into a 3D tactile experience. The sculptures are 3D scanned and 3D printed to enhance the tactile aspects of the exhibit.
