The Leonardo on Wheels—Science is operated by the Utah Science Center. Like each partner in The Leonardo, the Science Center and its outreach program use Leonardo da Vinci as an icon and inspiration.
Five hundred years ago, Leonardo left a legacy of innovation that spanned science, technology, art, and culture in his search for understanding and creativity. He brought observations and ideas together in his notebooks. He demonstrated that true innovation requires thinking beyond boundaries and barriers-that science facilitates art and that artistic creativity facilitates science. The goal of The Leonardo on Wheels—Science is to provide opportunities for students, teachers, and parents to be inspired and empowered to see beyond the ordinary and to discover more fully the world that surrounds them.
Our goal for The Leonardo on Wheels—Science is to provide opportunities for students, teachers, and parents to be inspired and empowered to see beyond the ordinary and to discover more fully the world that surrounds them.
What is it that changes our minds? What inspires us to think and act in new ways? What transforms our view of the world and our relationships with each other? The Leonardo on Wheels—Science and its parent, the Utah Science Center, are built on the belief that learning transforms - that knowledge is a catalyst to understanding, and that creativity sparks vision and achievement.
The Leonardo on Wheels—Science brings components of the Utah Science Center to schools and communities throughout the State via a traveling mini-science center approach, using highly interactive exhibits and activities.
