Exploration Zone at Eclipse Expo a Big Hit!
Proudly Sponsored Locally By Thousands of people from across the country and around the world visited the CROSSROADS ASTRONOMY, SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY EXPO at the SIU Arena during the weekend of the total solar eclipse – and many of them stopped by to visit with us at WSIU’s PBS KIDS EXPLORATION ZONE. WSIU’s interactive exhibit was a wildly popular attraction for families and included a selfie station featuring wallsized star maps and science facts, props like a steampunk rocket, captain’s chair, space helmet, and WSIU selfie signs, and photo opportunities with PBS KIDS character Jet Propulsion. Kids enjoyed space science-themed games and activities, collected astronomy trading cards, and watched PBS KIDS videos while parents browsed free WSIU materials and giveaways items Thank you to the WSIU staff, SIU students, Friends Board members, and other volunteers who helped to make this event an incredible success – and a big “THANK YOU” to FIRST SOUTHERN BANK for sponsoring our Exploration Zone. We enjoyed connecting with PBS fans of all ages and received positive feedback throughout the event!
