Coming Soon
A very curious bus
In Spring 2026, we will be launching our "Field Unit" - a small bus outfitted as a mobile creative studio for kids.
Phase 1
Phase 1 of this project is all about obtaining a bus, getting all the paperwork filed for it, and making sure it's ready for service!
The estimated cost for Phase 1 is $10,000.
Phase 2
Phase 2 is the build out! Once we have a bus that is cleared for take-off, we'll begin the process of converting the interior to include lots of workspace for kids to explore their creativity and curiosity!
The estimated cost for Phase 2 is $15,000.
