Be part of something truly special and unique!  Join Borderless Arts TN as we create “Arty The Shark”

The project begins on May 31 at 11am via Zoom.  Join Borderless Arts TN on May 31 at 11am via Zoom as we explore the wonders of the ocean from your kitchen table the internationally known Mote Marine Institute! Learn at home about a variety of magnificent marine life, ocean conservation issues, and marine science research. Mote virtual field trips are live, two-way, interactive experiences with their laboratory in Florida. They connect the audience to STEM subject matter experts and provide engaging science demonstrations and lively animal encounters. Their award-winning programs are based on the 60+ years of marine research at their lab. All programs are aligned with State and National Science standards.

On Jun 1 and 2 (and possibly June 6) we will go to Middle Tennessee State University at 10am to work with Lauren Rudd to create Arty The Shark.  He will be made out of neoprene. Arty will represent a conservation message of a best and worst case scenario for our oceans.He will then travel to Florida where he will get to swim with the sharks at the MOTE Marine Institute’s aquarium courtesy of one of their divers. He will then make his wave for a splash in the ocean where he will be documented by divers before returning to the land.

Don’t miss these special opportunities and sign up today!  You do NOT have to be available for every date to participate.  You may participate on the dates that work for you.
