Immersive Art Club Selected to SPARK! Pop-Up Experience
Congratulations to the Immersive Art Club for being selected to participate in the SPARK! PRISMATIC: Fantastical Realms Art Pop-up Experience.
SPARK! Dallas, the innovative educational facility fostering creativity in youth, has partnered with arts and entertainment company Meow Wolf for a second year to host SPARK! PRISMATIC: Fantastical Realms Art Pop-up Experience featuring six area high school artists’ creations. Themed Fantastical Realms to stretch imaginations into fantasy lands, the colorful exhibition is an immersive experience showcasing the students’ creativity through an area imagined, designed, and built in a single color and theme. SPARK! Dallas received 26 submissions, including one from Greenhill’s Immersive Art Club. Their Atlantis-themed concept was selected to participate in this experience based on their creativity, design elements, and proposal submission. The club includes Ian Wu ’26, Rachel Jiang ’26, Henry Lipnik ’27, Audrey Liu ’27, and Ayaana Joshi ’28, with mentorship from Luna Kim, UX Design Teacher, and Thomas Martinez, MS/US Visual Art Teacher. The winning students are mentored by Meow Wolf team members and receive behind-the-scenes tours at Meow Wolf Grapevine, as well as funding for materials to help build these immersive rooms. The community is invited to see the PRISMATIC Art Pop-up Experience from May 31 to September 7 at SPARK!, located at Southside on Lamar (1409 Botham Jean Blvd., Suite #004, Dallas, TX 75215). Meg Bittner, Executive Director of SPARK!, said, “As SPARK! Dallas celebrates its 10th anniversary, we are committed to showcasing the most creative programs, and that includes PRISMATIC: Fantastical Realms. These talented students will create an immersive art experience for all the see – from young children to adults – so don’t miss its limited showing.” Christy Howell, Exhibition Manager at Meow Wolf Grapevine, said, “Mentoring SPARK! Dallas students again this year has been an incredible experience. PRISMATIC gives these young creators a platform to unleash their imagination and innovation. This partnership truly highlights the intersection of art, technology, and engineering, offering students hands-on experience with immersive design concepts that can shape their creative futures.” For information about the rooms and to purchase tickets, click here. |
