Steel Park (Creative Factory) Identity

Kristina Novosadova

In an effort to popularize scientific disciplines and technically-oriented schools in a creative form among the younger generation, the newly-created exhibition based on the steel-production cycle entitled Steel Park – Creative Factory is to be installed in the Kulturpark area in Košice. This quite unusual exhibition is meant to attract visitors, mainly children from 7 years of age and upwards, into the factory environment to experience „the story of steel“ presented in a creative form, starting from mining of raw materials through charging scrap into the red-hot converter and the rolling of steel sheet, up to the finished products, in this case automobiles. The exhibition will offer the visitors active playing with the exhibits – extraction of raw materials in an interactive mine (children’s sandpit), operation of an electromagnetic crane, high-lift platform, or passage across a magnetic foot-bridge.
