Our impact to Culture-
climate change
Aurora Revelare turns science into experience and culture into shared discovery. It brings together science, art and northern beliefs about the aurora – connecting generations and backgrounds. The exhibition encourages wonder, interaction and multisensory learning. It changes how knowledge is experienced: the visitor becomes part of the story – an explorer, a thinker, and a co-creator.
