Today, the Cambridge Science Festival kicks off with the MIT Open House. For one day only, MIT is throwing open its doors to the public to show off all the geektacular goings-on. Tons of activities will be available for your edification and entertainment, and we at GAMBIT are of course doing our part.

For SCIENCE!

GAMBIT Game Lab Open House
Saturday, April 30, 11am-4pm
5 Cambridge Center, 3rd Floor
All ages

Haven't been to the GAMBIT lab in Kendall Square yet? Well why on earth not? Come play and learn about our latest research at this family friendly event.

"But wait," I hear you cry. "I don't just want to play games, I want to help with SCIENCE!" Glad to hear it, because you can do both. We'll be recruiting guinea pigs helpful volunteers to play and discuss board games, video games, and board games that will someday be video games. Drop by the lab to join one of our many focus groups and playtesting sessions we'll be holding throughout the day.

This event is part of the MIT Open House, with hundreds of activities sponsored by MIT departments, labs, and student groups. MIT hasn't opened its doors to the public like this since the 70s, so this is a rare treat. Bring the whole family. It will be nerdtastically awesome.
