“Tying Math and Art Together: hands-on fun with mathematical knots” with Mircea Draghicescu

Discover the fascinating world of mathematical knots!  Join mathematician and ITSPHUN creator Mircea Draghicescu for an evening of knotty exploration as you learn the difference between regular, everyday knots and mathematical ones; solve some intriguing knot puzzles; weave paper strips into decorative balls; and tie your very own kinetic knot bracelets to take home.  It’s math, it’s fun, it’s creativity, and it’s KNOT to be missed!

Family Fridays is designed to bring family members of all ages together to enjoy a diverse array of engaging mathematical activities, promoting interest and enthusiasm among kids and adults alike.

Thanks to the generous support of Two Sigma, this program is free to attendees.

Here’s what participants have to say:

“I was very impressed at how such a program could be presented that truly worked for all ages!  I, at 68, was as fascinated as the kids.  It was fun watching them grabbing what they could and happily keeping up with the activities.”

“Super excellent for all ages — one of best programs ever (not just Family Fridays — all programs everywhere!)”

“Wow!  It’s the first time we are attending Family Friday series.  We are so impressed!  You guys are amazing!  Thank you!”
