Circuit Lightning Bugs

In this workshop, kids will create their own lightning bug, explore how electricity works, and build a simple circuit. It turns a basic science concept into something creative and collaborative, blending art-making with discovery and giving kids (and adults) a chance to experiment, problem-solve, and enjoy the small moment of success when their bug finally glows.
