Interactive exhibits for water conservation museum

The Laredo Water Museum is a water conservation space aiming to bring environmental awareness to the Rio Grande community and surrounding ecologies. Visitors are encouraged to interact with the exhibit space via physical buttons, levers, and touch screens (including a rowing machine). Most of the exhibits use lighting and motion to display infographic information aiming to educate visitors on water stewardship.

Through immersive and interactive exhibits, the Laredo Water Museum underscores the urgent need for preserving the earth's limited supply of clean water. It highlights the responsibilities of individuals, institutions, and governments share to conserve and maintain the Rio Grande watershed and the surrounding ecologies.
