Join the MIT Museum for its 18th annual Friday After Thanksgiving (F.A.T.) Chain Reaction Event.

This year's theme is 18th Century.

Kinetic artists Arthur Ganson and Jeff Lieberman will mastermind the choreography of this Rube Goldberg machine, assisted by teams and participants who range from families and school groups to artists and engineers.

Over 30 teams from all over the country will participate in this one-of-a-kind engineering feat.

Throughout the afternoon, teams will put the finishing touches on their contraptions while side activities engage families of all ages.

At 3:30 p.m., the magic moment when all the machines are linked together, the chain reaction will be set off with a special surprise ending executed by Ganson and Leiberman.
