Get in your element and wear the atmosphere in this hands-on family workshop   

The elemental shapes of Tadao Ando’s pavilion heighten light and shadow, while the pond gives us reflections and wind ripples. Now a trio of spatialdesigners, creatives and educators—Anna Conrick, Gyungju Chyon and Danica Karaičić—are helping kids fully embody the atmospheric elements at play in the pavilion. In this one-off workshop we’ll get the chance to create wearable objects and small-scale instruments that respond to light, wind, and water. Get attuned to the shifts in atmosphere. Open the senses. Create performances. Fun is in the air.
