About the Event

Visit the Mobile Alchemy Research Station (M.A.R.S.)

Lukas Milanak will demonstrate the melting, coloring, and shaping of molten glass in an attempt to create the fabled "Philosopher's Stone".

 Sign up to “Visit the Mobile Alchemy Research Station (M.A.R.S.)” Steam Works, led by “Echoes Are Visible” The Boiler exhibiting Artist, Lukas Milanak. Saturday, Aug. 27nd, 2 pm - 4 pm. 

Lukas Milanak will demonstrate with some help from ELM students, the melting, coloring, and shaping of molten glass in an attempt to create the fabled "Philosopher's Stone” while explaining the physics and chemistry of glass.

 Using found objects like a microwave, blowtorch, and a forge built into a coffee can, “Echoes Are Visible” exhibiting Artist, Lukas Milanak will demonstrate the melting, coloring, and shaping of molten glass in an attempt to create the fabled "Philosopher's Stone". As part of the demonstration, Milanak will also talk about the physics and chemistry of glass, linking the atomic structure of glass to its meltability, conductivity, and more. Students will leave with an increased understanding of microwave physics and glass as a material.

Introducing Steam Works!

Our ongoing Art Education program “Steam Works” combines The Boiler and ELM Foundation programming, and exemplifies our “Arts Community Empowering Community Arts” endeavor by providing students the opportunity to learn directly from each exhibiting artist. We hope to inspire the next generation of artists and creatives through free workshops and classes that focus on the specialty, media, or discipline of the current Boiler Artist’s works. With each unique experience, we strive to promote the transformative power of art.
