Santa Fe Children’s Museum

The PICT 2021 course proudly partnered with the SFCM to create student-designed exhibits and other materials for the Museum focused on giving back to their community with an emphasis on at-risk youth and their families. In addition to exhibits, marketing and branding materials, students also designed and created complimentary educational STEAM (science, technology, engineering, the arts, mathematics) activity kits with lesson plans for families in rural and Tribal communities throughout New Mexico. “Grab & Grow” kits teach learners of all ages about agriculture and science. Learning to grow a seedling in a mason jar is a hands-on, socially responsive, interactive design project aims to advocate for recovery efforts responding to changes brought on by the Covid 19 pandemic.

The Segesser Hides are paintings on tanned bison hides that depict early Spanish colonial life in the New Mexico.  The interactive allows users to zoom in to get a detailed look of the hides and learn more about the unique sections of the paintings.

This project was built with HTML5, CSS, Javascript and open source Javascript libraries. It uses assets from the original Adobe Flash version of the Segesser Hides interactive.

Adobe Flash is outdated, proprietary and not supported on modern browsers and devices . By converting from Flash to web programming languages, the new interactive is now available in the museum’s gallery on a touchscreen and on the web.
