Today, April 15, is traditionally opening day of the visitor season at our headquarters. This year, instead of visitors, our site is humming with construction activity. Enjoy our latest update:

The artist's secret revealed – so that's how you get the drawing on the wall! Armed with a projector, generator and lots and lots of pencils, artist Jay Jocham applies the first sketch of a mural that will be at our exhibit pod.
