SUMMARY:Nevada Robotics at Curiosity Lab by DRI
DESCRIPTION:Come create and make with us! The Nevada Robotics team will be on hand for CS-STEM Creations – art projects with robots and coding – from 5 – 8 p.m. on July 30 at the DRI\, Reno Campus for Curiosity Lab – From Curiosity to Creation: Listen\, Learn\, and Create. \nPurchase tickets online! \nFull Event Info:\nJoin us for an evening of inspiration and creativity at Curiosity Lab by DRI – From Curiosity to Creation: Listen\, Learn\, Create. Discover the intersection of art and science through lightning talks from innovative thinkers\, including Rachel Kozloski\, a DRI hydrologist studying microplastics in water systems\, and Fil Corbitt\, producer of The Wind podcast\, who explores place through immersive sound recordings. After their talks\, unleash your own creativity with provided materials and experiment with different artistic mediums (you are welcome to bring your own art supplies as well). The evening culminates in a pop-up gallery showcasing the community’s collective creations. This event is best-enjoyed by those over 13 years old.  \nCome ready to listen\, learn\, and create!\n5pm to 6pm: Food trucks & 10 Torr Cocktails\n6pm to 6:30pm: Presentations\n6:30pm to 7:30pm: CREATE! Use the provided art supplies or bring your own to create artworks inspired by our speakers\n7:30pm to 8:30pm: Stroll through the pop-up gallery of artwork created by the community. \nFeaturing: \nRachel Kozloski is a PhD student in UNR’s Graduate Program of Hydrologic Sciences. Prior to beginning her PhD\, Rachel worked in the private and government sectors as a soil scientist and environmental analyst. Her research focuses on microplastics in urban runoff and microplastic movement in connected surface and groundwater systems. When she is not conducting lab analyses or doing fieldwork\, she is equally happy exploring wild places or curled up with her dogs and a good book.  \nFil Corbitt producer of The Wind podcast. Fil will be telling the story of using sound to explore place. His signature sound recordings around Nevada and the world bring the natural world to listeners\, allowing them to use just their sense of hearing to experience the environment. \nThank you to our community partner Nevada Humanities\, our media sponsor KUNR\, and our exclusive beverage sponsor 10 Torr.
