SUMMARY:“Living Worlds”
DESCRIPTION:Earth is a planet shaped by life. From the forests that help stabilize our climate\, to the winds carrying life-sustaining water and oxygen to far-flung parts of the globe\, the fingerprints of life are visible even from many light years away. \nWhether earthly or alien\, all life leaves a trace. Join narrator Daveed Diggs on a journey through space and time to discover how life makes Earth liveable\, where it could be found elsewhere in the cosmos\, and what new technologies we might use to find it. Along the way\, you’ll learn how light and color can help us spot other living worlds even from vast distances—and develop a new appreciation for the one-of-a-kind planet right beneath our feet. \nShow length ~25 min. \nThis program is followed by a quick look at the constellations\, planets and other celestial wonders visible in the night sky from our region. \n.avia-button-avb69f1bf3799b68:hover {background-color: #444444 !important;color: #ffffff !important;transform: translateZ(0) scale(1.03); }Click here to register online for tickets

SUMMARY:Stained Glass: Flowers\, Birds and Bees.
DESCRIPTION:Learn traditional stained glass techniques from start to finish.\n\n\nChoose from an assortment of glass colors\, textures and transparencies to completely customize it into a one of a kind piece. You’ll learn how to cut glass\, grid it to fit a pattern\, apply copper foil and finally solder it all together. This is a beginners class\, perfect for anyone that’s curious about the process and techniques that go into making Tiffany Style Stained Glass. \n \nPlease wear close-toed shoes and natural fibers like cotton/wool (jeans and a t-shirt work great). All long hair should be pulled back. \nAge 10+\, under 18 must be accompanied by a guardian. \n\n\n\n\nJoy Riggs started making Stained Glass in 2000. Her passion for it ultimately led her to open Studio 116 in Kingsport where she specializes in custom stained glass panels and whimsical suncatchers. Joy loves to create unique pieces based on her customers’ ideas\, and enjoys the challenge of trying something different.
