Through the artist's eyes, the scientist's microscope, and the lens of culture, campers explore the amazing living things that flourish on our planet and the people contributing to a better Earth. Visits to the Natural History Museum, the National Zoo, and hands-on Earth Optimism programs at the Smithsonian Folklife Festival inspire campers as they plan ways to make a positive impact, learn sustainable practices, and create eco-friendly and recycled artworks that spread messages of hope and action in a Friday exhibition.
