MIT Museum
We have scheduled a special guided tour to the new MIT Museum on Monday, January 8 at 10 am. A guide will give insights on the exhibition entitled Gene Cultures, after which we are free to explore the museum on our own. The price for this tour, which includes entrance to the museum, is $15 per person. This tour is limited to 20 people. Make your payment by check or Venmo no later than December 26. Please contact Marsha Semuels at mhsemuels@gmail.com to reserve your space and to make payment. The group will have lunch together at Shy Bird, a nearby restaurant.
The newly reopened museum features science, technology, photography, and art. Read more about the collections below. Here is a bit more about Gene Cultures.
