context_page_description: The Leonardo, located in downtown Salt Lake City, Utah, United States is a science and art museum where visitors can explore the ways that science, technology, art, and creativity connect. The museum opened its doors on October 8, 2011.
  The educational philosophy of the museum is inspired by the Renaissance figure Leonardo da Vinci because of his willingness to follow his curiosity and his general belief that the arts and sciences were a part of the same enterprise. The museum is founded on the idea that Leonardo's approach is even more relevant today, as it has become harder to synthesize the incredible amount of information available to us in the modern age.
  The Leonardo is run by a board of directors and an internal staff.
context_section_description: Perception is an exhibit based on the idea that our minds are astonishing. The human mind constructs experience by distorting, adding, and even leaving things out. By focusing on three senses—touch, hearing and sight—Perception explores how our minds manipulate sensory data to shape a view of the world. Each visit give visitors a new appreciation for that wonderful, mysterious organ, the human brain.
  Skin is the largest organ of the human body, a landscape of feeling. In Perception, visitors can navigate the world solely with their sense of touch. They can dive arm-first into the tactile boxes, or try activities that reveal features of their nervous system they never knew about.
