The Jackson Hole Wildlife Film Festival, in collaboration with Dancers' Workshop and the Art Association of Jackson Hole, offered an out-of-this-world experience this year in celebration of the Year of the Cosmos, 2009! Children, grades K - 3, had the opportunity to make their own glow-in-the-dark art and space outfits, learn how to moonwalk and space-slide, as well as capture random moments on film. There was also an overnight "boom" camp-out at the Center for the Arts sponsored in part by the Center of Wonder. Local astronomers came with their telescopes for stargazing and planned various fun art experiments. On the 4th and final day of the camp, there was a showcase summarizing the campers' week of space adventure.
