DESCRIPTION: For kids who dare to power up their projects with the energy of the sun!  In this workshop participants become engineers, makers, and artists. They will learn how to turn on lights with solar panels and they will then give a purpose to their circuits - is it a light for someone’s bedroom, a light on a dream car, or lights as eyes for your unicorn? Sky is the limit!
