The Schuff-Perini Climber finally opens this Summer at the Phoenix Children’s Museum. Installation of the Climber has been taking place since September 14th. During the construction period, 50 tons of steel was brought into the Museum’s Atrium and erected on site.
In order to finish the Climber, the Children’s Museum of Phoenix needed to raise some money so we stepped up to the plate and got a little crazy with the kiddos at Legend City Studios one afternoon last fall and helped to create these Raise the Climber ads which Moses-Anshell put the finishing design & illustration touches on.
Fun facts from their website, the Climber is constructed of 50 tons of structural steel which equals:
- 4 school buses
- 10 adult elephants
- 1,539 adult male javelinas
- 11,976 gallons of water
- 80,000 basketballs
- 400,000 apples
- 5.35 million yellow chick Peeps
- 18.1 million pennies
- 160 billion butterflies
