Spend the weekend creating a cool piece of illuminated art to display in your home or office. As you perfect your design, explore different torches and techniques and enjoy discussions about noble gases and the effects each one creates when energized. Also, learn the best way to design a work for practical mounting. Once you complete your design, we will finish and mount the work for you. A transformer for lighting the piece is included.<br><br><a href="https://chrysler.org/event/introduction-to-neon/">https://chrysler.org/event/introduction-to-neon/</a>
