Dream Tomorrow Today: Empowering Children to Shape the Future through STEAM Exploration
Kids will practice social emotional flexibility and self-direction through STEAM (science, technology, engineering,
arts & design and math) collaboration in this interactive exhibition
Science World is thrilled to announce the opening of Dream Tomorrow Today, an immersive traveling exhibition developed by the creative minds at The DoSeum. The exhibition is toured internationally by Flying Fish, known for its commitment to bringing innovative educational experiences to audiences worldwide.
“In this future-focused exhibition, visitors will use innovative Augmented Reality (AR) and STEAM inventions to design the cities and solutions of tomorrow,” said Nicole Vieira, Exhibition Curator at Science World. “We can’t wait to see our guests unleash their inner problem-solving skills using cutting-edge tech and modern smarts to tackle today’s challenges and those around the corner.”
Dream Tomorrow Today is a transformative journey that empowers children to positively impact the future through the lens of STEAM. Designed to foster STEAM identities, this immersive experience harnesses the power of play to cultivate the skills and mindset necessary to shape a better world for future generations.
“We are thrilled to collaborate with The DoSeum on this exhibition and hope to inspire a new generation of creative thinkers and problem-solvers. Dream Tomorrow Today offers a transformative experience that encourages young minds to dream big and become agents of change in their communities and beyond,” said Jay Brown, Principal & Managing Director of Flying Fish.
Visitors to Dream Tomorrow Today embark on a dynamic adventure where they are at the helm of shaping the future. Through interactive and hands-on activities, participants create profiles and utilize their STEAM skills to tackle complex future challenges. This gamified approach to learning ensures that children are engaged and equipped with the tools needed to navigate the evolving landscape of technology and innovation.
“Children and adults of all ages will engage in joyful learning. Children slide into the future, weave new places to hang out, clean up “trash” in a ball pit “lake”, build new inventions in a Maker Space, use Augmented Reality to build a city, and shop at a futuristic grocery store. There is truly an experience for everyone, and everyone matters,” said Meredith Doby, Vice President of Exhibits at The DoSeum.
Central to the exhibition’s vision is “Planet Power” – a comprehensive metric encompassing health, happiness, nature, and equality. By actively participating in the exhibition’s activities, young learners discover practical ways to improve their Planet Power scores and, in turn, contribute to a more sustainable and equitable world.
Dream Tomorrow Today celebrates each child’s unique potential to effect positive change. Upon completing the challenges and activities, visitors are rewarded with personalized STEAM identities, reinforcing the skills and knowledge acquired throughout the experience. These identities serve as a reminder that their contributions, no matter how big or small, can transform the future.
