Continuing its journey through major South Indian cities like Bangalore, Chennai, and Hyderabad, Sunfeast Dark Fantasy's iconic Fantasy Spaceship has landed in Mumbai to celebrate National Science Day on 28th February. As part of its “Big Fantasies: Give Wings to Your Imagination” campaign, the initiative aims to inspire creativity and imagination in children by merging art with technology.
The event, held at the Nehru Science Centre, welcomed over 500 children on its first day. The Fantasy Spaceship, powered by innovative technology, offers young minds the chance to turn their hand-drawn creations into vibrant digital works. A specially designed bus, equipped with large interactive screens, scans children's artwork and transforms it into 3D interactive characters that are displayed on touch-enabled screens inside the spaceship.
Commenting on the initiative, Ali Harris Shere, COO of Biscuits and Cakes Cluster, Foods Division, ITC Limited, said, "Partnering with the Nehru Science Centre for this initiative on National Science Day is a perfect way to celebrate young minds and their boundless potential. Every moment shared is a reminder of the incredible creativity that resides within them. We can’t wait to welcome even more young dreamers in the days ahead and see where their imaginations take us next!"
One of the excited participants, Rahul, shared, "I love superheroes, and today, I saw my drawing turn into a real digital superhero on the big screen! It was like my fantasy coming true." His mother, Anjali, added, "As a parent, I’m always looking for activities that encourage my child’s creativity. This experience was truly magical—combining science and imagination in such a unique way. Seeing the joy on his face was priceless!"
The Fantasy Spaceship will be open to children at Nehru Science Centre until 2nd March 2025, offering them a chance to explore the exciting fusion of art, science, and technology. Additionally, select children will be given the opportunity for a once-in-a-lifetime visit to NASA, turning their dreams of space exploration into reality.
