  We describe our experiment with an alternate approach to presenting cosmic
ray research. The goal was to more widely promote cosmic ray research and
attract diverse audiences, especially those from groups that are
underrepresented in science or that do not have experience attending science
outreach events. The IceCube Neutrino Observatory education and outreach team
brought together local teenagers, internationally accomplished artists, science
communicators, and scientists to produce an interactive gallery exhibit,
Messages, that explores the cosmic ray community and science. The artists
collaborated with the scientists and students to create two original
installations that will be displayed at the UW-Madison Memorial Union Gallery
for six weeks, from mid-June, 2019, through the end of the International Cosmic
Ray Conference 2019. Event Horizon by Abdu'Allah with Ladoni features portraits
of cosmic ray researchers and high school students who are learning more about
the field. This installation will examine the science community as it is and as
it could be. Messages from the Horizon by Hosale with Madsen is inspired by
previous immersive works. It combines sound and light to explore what we know
and how we know it.
