MoMath: The premier Museum in North America that celebrates the beauty and wonder of mathematics, located in New York City! 🌻
Luke Skywalker himself, Mark Hamill, stopped by MoMath for some math fun! He rode the square‑wheeled tricycle and chatted with MoMath’s own Cindy Lawrence about the beauty of math. Catch him as a math-loving grandpa in The Life of Chuck www.newyorker.com/magazine/tru...

🥧 Happy Pi Day from MoMath! Circles are everywhere—a clock on your wall, your dinner plate, even the pond at the park. Last year, talkSTEM’s walkSTEM® measured a drained pond in Madison Square Park to uncover the magic of 3.14.
Watch here 👉 lnkd.in/dYgG98y5
See if you can find π!

Happy Fibonacci Day (1,1,2,3)! I recently had a free day in NYC and got the chance to visit the National Museum of Mathematics @momath.bsky.social, getting hands-on with demonstrations of concepts as classic as the Pythagorean Theorem and as cutting-edge as the world's first aperiodic monotile!

I’ve always wanted to see @momath.bsky.social - it’s full of brilliant exhibits, and it was an extra special privilege to deliver an event for families in their space! Definitely worth a visit for anyone who travels to NYC.
