Four Online CSU Adventures for Your Weekend Quarantine
April 3, 2020
1. Pasaquan
You can take a virtual tour of Pasaquan, the mystical “7-acre visionary art environment” that was built by the enigmatic St. EOM. Located in Buena Vista, GA, the virtual tour lets you explore the “six major structures, mandala murals and more than 900 feet of elaborately painted masonry walls,” which lavishly fuses African pre-Columbian Mexico and Native American cultural and religious symbols and designs.” This virtual tour was created by Harlan Hambright and can be accessed by visiting https://my.matterport.com/show/?m=Fsf3C4eLovY

On Saturday, April 4, The Coca-Cola Space Science Center is presenting a Virtual Astronomy Night at 8 p.m. EST. Hosted by Dr. Rosa Williams, Director of WestRock Observatory, you can “learn about the night sky from the comfort of your home” via The Coca-Cola Space Science Center’s Facebook page timeline.
