Just Add Math Program
If you are interested in having some math "added" to your Institution's public offerings please contact us to see if there's a good opportunity for us to collaborate. We are actively seeking partnerships with non-profits and educational institutions that wish to engage the public as well as visiting school groups in mathematical aspects of their exhibits and offerings.
