LED Lights: Mother’s Day Cards

  • Lewis Latimer House Museum 34-41 137th Street Queens, NY, 11354 United States (map)

We invite families to join us in celebration of Mother’s Day to create greeting cards for the women caretakers we love.

What better way to say Happy Mother’s Day than through lights and thoughtful words?

Lewis Latimer was an electrical engineer. He created the carbon filament light bulb patent, making Edison’s original prototype more long lasting and accessible to the public. This workshop puts an artistic twist on electricity & circuits.

LED lights will be used in our greeting cards by creating a stationary paper circuit to illuminate our creations.

This program is supported, in part, by Science Sandbox, Matisse Foundation, AT&T, Unitarian Universalist Congregation of Queens, New York State Council on the Arts, Queens Borough President, and by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the city council.
