SP Weather Station
SP Weather Station, co-founded by artists Heidi Neilson and Natalie Campbell, is an interdisciplinary project which has organized and participated in many weather-related publications, events, and exhibitions since 2007. The new weather station installation at Socrates will serve as a hub for new environment-related workshops and educational activities while contributing weather data to online networks.

EDUCATION
The Field Guide series will use the weather station to explore art making and the natural world with Heidi Neilson. Our AH-YES participants will also use the weather station to monitor the climate, air and soil quality this summer.
