Bug Bright was a buzzing, hands-on adventure where kids (and kids at heart) created a radiant glow bug using simple materials, LEDs, and cell batteries, blending art and science to explore basic circuits in a playful, interactive way. Alongside the making, participants were invited to pause, breathe, and connect with their emotions, discovering how their inner light can shine through big feelings with a little mindfulness. At the Bug Bright pop-up booth, participants also picked up A Light-Up Guide to Calming Big Emotions, a free interactive zine to keep their glow going beyond the activity. Bug Bright was a free, family-friendly experience that celebrated curiosity over perfection, showing how creativity, science, and mindfulness can come together to help us beam from the inside out.
