TrekStar Installation Participation Notes

*All ages are welcome to participate and collaborate, BUT children must be supervised - particularly with the hot glue guns and materials like plastic which can become sharp after cutting!

*Materials will be provided BUT you are welcome to bring more stuff!

*There will be a “take-apart” section if you just like to dismantle old electronics and toys!

*There will be wet paint in a (hopefully) controlled section of the ‘making’ area and it will probably be HOT in our making space, so please DRESS accordingly and appropriately.

*Space will be a tad limited so your patience may be required. Participants are welcome to come see what we are up to and make something at home to add to the installation. Yay!!!

*Just a few teasers on some of the creative items needed for the installation: space food, “things that can be seen out the front window of a spaceship (rockets, planets, other spaceships/UFOs, Mary Poppins, space debris, etc.),” portrait gallery of past captains, robot helpers, control panels, “space specimens - miniature creatures collected over the years by TrekStar crew members”, …….well, you get the idea!!!!! This is going to be a heck of a lot of fun!!!!!!!

Now Showing in Curious Collections through October 11, 2025
