Announcing the launch of the Humanities Institute Makerspace! On select afternoons this academic year, 198 Hagerty Hall will be open for drop-in art-making, OR the HI MS will travel to locations around the Oval. Led by a rotating list of co-sponsors, the maker space will offer projects and materials in a variety of media, with projects reflecting the content and interests of our centers and other humanities affiliates.
Makerspace events are free, open to everyone and welcoming to all. No registration is required- drop in and make art in your own time.
