DIY Solar Sculptures at NIU
The March 17th DIY Solar Sculptures workshop at Northern Illinois University was fairly well-attended considering it was the first 70-degree day in Illinois since the fall of 2008. About ten people attended and sweated to get their solar powered walking king crabs together in less than an hour. The workshop was part of a celebration of Women’s History Month. The Chronicle ran a nice article on the 18th that summarized the experience.
