Two UNLV students were selected as winners in the inaugural Sphere XO Student Design Challenge, which invited local students to create art for the Exosphere – the LED exterior of Sphere in Las Vegas. Graduate math student Linjie Ying and architecture student Raul Montez each won a $10,000 education scholarship and the opportunity to have their artwork displayed on the Exosphere throughout the summer. The contest represented a first-of-its-kind community collaboration between Sphere, the CCSD, and UNLV.
