Please join Studio Infinity to construct a large hemispherical model of a mathematical object called the hyperbolic plane! Absolutely no mathematical background is required to assist with this build. Once constructed, the hemisphere model will also allow you to see three other commonly-used models of hyperbolic geometry.
