Make Something Beautiful

Help Us Celebrate Our 125th Anniversary!

This year the EE Department celebrates its 125th anniversary. As part of the celebration we are building a beautiful interactive light sculpture to be installed in the David Packard Electrical Engineering Building staircase.

OUR WEEKLY WORKSHOPS

Next week is the second weekly workshop on the large scale interactive light art installation we’re building to celebrate the 125 anniversary of the EE department. These weekly workshops are a way for students, faculty, staff, and alumni from across the university to collaborate on and contribute to the art piece. Charles Gadeken, the artistic director for the project, leads them.

Workshops are generally held on Mondays from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM in Room 001 of the David Packard Electrical Engineering Building. If Monday is a University holiday, the workshop will be held the following Wednesday from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM in the same location.
