  • Connect with stories of nêhiyaw constellations and what they teach us about ourselves, the land and the sky. Students will construct a constellation viewer from a choice of six constellations. In our contemplative Aurora room, students will then apply their reflective skills to experience the Northern Lights through art and language.

    Pairs well with Legends of the Northern Sky in the Zeidler Dome.
