Mathematics illuminates the patterns that abound in our world.  Kids need opportunities to experience math beyond the textbook. One such opportunity is the National Museum of Mathematics, founded to enhance public understanding and perception of mathematics. Its dynamic exhibits and programs stimulate inquiry, spark curiosity, and reveal the wonders of mathematics.

Cindy Lawrence, the Museum’s Executive Director and CEO, describes the origin story of the National Museum of Mathematics (an award-winning museum) and highlights the role of mathematics in illuminating the patterns and structures all around us.  The dynamic exhibits, galleries, and programs at MoMath are designed to stimulate inquiry, spark curiosity, and reveal the wonders of mathematics.  The Museum’s innovative exhibits will engage visitors of every age, from 1 to 100! Whether you visit in person at their New York City location,  experience their Math Midway 2 Go traveling exhibits, or join their online programs, you and your kids will be amazed by the relevance and beauty of math.
