This event is also designed to celebrate Alaska’s dedicated professionals that continue the mission of bringing Alaska ancient past to life and the many wonderful local museums. Scientists, museum staff, and paleontologists are to speak in relation to the project as they develop. We work closely with the worlds top Scientists and experts to bring to life an accurate, authentic portrait based on current science of what the animals should look like. Our scientific advisors explain and descibe through thier  own words the current data and scientific discriptions both old and new. 

Video documentaries created and produced by the artsit " first person"  from the very start of every project. The bi-weekly videos document artist James Havens and the Havens Studio team on location in the studio as well as Alaska's rugged wilderness. Join the expeditons with paleontologists and proffesional rock hounds to unravel ancient mysteries of brand new discoveries.  Learn insights from the worlds top scientists and watch as the project develops and evolves step-by-step into what will one day become a finished large scale art installation and museum exhibit combining the most advanced technology, science with the most traditional of hands-on sculpture and painting.
