Idea by @Carolyn Robbins

Pair artists, musicians, actors, scientists, poets, or financial wizards, with students from junior high and high schools, to create inventions to be shown in public locations like libraries, civic center cafeterias, police headquarters, or even empty store windows in downtown areas. Create a theme perhaps but not necessary. I think young people are ignited by inventing and building under the guidance of professionals. I know my daughter was inspired by working in the chalk painting with professional artists at the festival events and as these things disappear, perhaps new ideas can emerge.
