The Everhart Museum in Scranton, Pennsylvania, will host a panel discussion on April 30, 2026, featuring astronaut and artist Nicole Stott, composer Amanda Lee Falkenberg, projection designer Camilla Tassi, and museum curator James Lansing. The event will explore the connections between the NEPA Philharmonic's upcoming "Planets, Moons, & Star Wars" concert and the museum's "Hubble Space Telescope: New Views of the Universe" exhibition.
This event matters as it represents a cross-disciplinary collaboration between a museum and a symphony orchestra, merging visual art, music, and science. It highlights a growing trend of institutions creating integrated cultural experiences that appeal to broader audiences and foster dialogue between artistic and scientific communities.
