Come by the List Center and take a break from studying for finals by creating a kinetic object accompanied by a refreshing beverage and snacks.

Drop by our lobby space to spend a few minutes (or the afternoon) following the self-guided activity prompts to create a kinetic sculpture of your very own. Follow along or create your own while enjoying a cup of infused water as a form of self-care during this stressful time. The List Center created this semester’s Art Break activity in collaboration with Jasmine Jerry Aloor, a PhD candidate in MIT's Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics.

All art materials will be provided, as well as a selection of study snacks and infused water.

Wednesday, May 14 – Friday, May 16 drop-in during open gallery hours.

Presented in partnership with MIT’s AeroAstro Department Resources for Easing Friction and Stress.
