"We’re in awe of the expertise it took to build these amazing creations,” said NAM President and Executive Director Phil MacDougall. “As a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization founded for educational purposes, the Museum is committed to exploring and sharing STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and math) programs with our community, and this is a fun and compelling way to do that.” The exhibit will be at the Museum through October and is included with the purchase of admission tickets or membership. Cardboard Superheroes is a non-profit organization promoting the arts in education, founded in 2019 by Connor (17) and Bauer (15) Lee. The Lee brothers created Cardboard Superheroes to share their passion for the pop-culture arts as well as creative building. They also have been Comic-Con panelists and are excited to inspire others through arts, educational curriculums, and workshops.
