Enhancing the Exploration of Art: Using Robotics and Interactive Tools

Wednesday, July 31 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm EDT

Technology

Join us for a webinar designed for librarians interested in using robotics and interactive tools to enhance the exploration of art in their libraries. Discover the potential of Makey Makey, Loti-Bot, Hummingbird kits, 3Doodler pens, and 3DuxDesign kits in fostering artistic creativity. We will showcase how robotics can revolutionize the way your patrons see and understand art.

This session will provide librarians with the opportunity to gain confidence in incorporating robotics into their existing STEAM programs. We will discuss the benefits of using robotics in art exploration, while also addressing any concerns or challenges.

No prior experience in robotics or coding is required. Join us and discover how robotics can inspire creativity and transform the art experience for your library patrons.
