CONFLUENCE

ART AND SCIENCE AS ONE

Art can be an incredible tool for sharing complex information. At PODS, art and
science will combine to create more diverse understandings of and connections

with the natural world. We will provide performance, conference, and exhibition

spaces, as well as dynamic indoor and outdoor classrooms and gathering places.

“The difference between science and arts is not that they are different sides
of the same coin, or even different parts of the same continuum, but rather
they’re manifestations of the same thing. The arts and sciences are avatars of
human creativity.”
