STEM-Inspired Artwork on Display at Weekend Otronicon

A STEAM Exhibition of paintings and posters created by collaborative teams of UCF art and science students heads to the Orlando Science Center  this weekend for Otronicon, an interactive technology expo.

The event runs now through Monday, Jan. 21.  The artworks are all inspired by cutting-edge, STEM-related research of leading UCF faculty and students. The exhibition includes futuristic visualizations and illustrations of some of the newest advancements in science and engineering.

The STEAM Exhibition supports the movement that “A” (for Arts) should be added to STEM programs (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) to create STEAM.

Otronicon offers larger-than-life video game experiences, real-world simulators, demonstrations and hands-on workshops for the whole family.

Hours are 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday and Monday.
