MC2 Events

Upcoming MC2 Events

MC2 hosts events year-round — from math festivals in schools to our annual QED Symposium each December. We also occasionally feature guest talks by mathematicians and screenings of math related documentaries.

Events Year-Round

From math festivals in schools and libraries to our annual QED Symposium in December, MC2 hosts engaging events throughout the year—including occasional guest talks by mathematicians.

Seasonal Programs

Our hub math circles run in fall, winter, and in summer camps. Registration opens in two phases: first a lottery, then open enrollment for any remaining spots.
Hunting Yellow Pigs Film Screening

This event will feature both a screening of the film "Hunting Yellow Pigs," as well as an opportunity to hear from alumni of Hampshire College Summer Studies in Mathematics (HCSSiM), inspiring students to become involved with high quality mathematics summer programs across the globe and locally in Chicago.
