In 2011, MIT will commemorate its 150th anniversary with celebrations that will be groundbreaking, participatory and focused on communicating the distinctive values of the Institute to the wider community. The MIT Museum is "co-creating" an exhibition with the MIT community that features 150 compelling artifacts.

You are invited to participate in a special design workshop to help develop the exhibition themes and content. Similar workshops were held for alumni during Tech Day in June, and they generated great ideas and were a lot of fun. We now are inviting students, staff and faculty to join in!
 
Two identical sessions will be held:
 
Morning session
Thursday, Oct. 1, 2009
9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.
 
Evening session
Thursday, Oct. 1, 2009
5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.
 
Both sessions will be held at the MIT Museum, 265 Massachusetts Ave., Cambridge. Refreshments will be provided.
