Creative kids are welcome to brighten their weekend with this fun activity.
Build a tree sculpture from twigs and conductive copper wire and mesh, then watch as your tree is energized before your eyes in a vacuum chamber, creating the glowing, sparkling phenomenon of Bremsstrahlung --- a safe form of electromagnetic radiation.
Visit the artists in the museum's studio to sculpt your tree, see it glow in the chamber, then take it home as a memento of the experience. For more information, call (412) 322-5058.
