5th Grade Trip to Staab Studios

The 5th graders traveled to Gary Staab's studio northwest of Kearney. We toured his studio and learned about his work recreating extinct animals and various other sculptures.  His work can be found in many museums including the Smithsonian.  He recently made a model of a new T-Rex called Lythronax.  Here is a link to learn more about Lythronax: http://www.sci-news.com/paleontology/science-lythronax-argestes-new-species-tyrannosaur-utah-01525.html.  Most importantly, Mr. Staab shared his passion with the students and that it is important to enjoy the process, not just the final product.  Here is a link to learn more about Staab Studios: http://www.staabstudios.com/ .
