Carnegie Museum to hold Pi Day program

Posted

The Carnegie Museum of Montgomery County will celebrate the official Pi Day (3.14) from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. March 18 at the museum in downtown Crawfordsville.

Pi Day celebrates the Greek letter Pi — 3.14, representing the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter. No matter the size of the circle, Pi is always the same number. Pi is amazing, a part of many mathematical formulas and is infinite. Wabash College professors and students will be on hand to share their love of math and science, two fields in which Pi is an important piece.

Drop in to try Pi themed activities, demonstrations and crafts with, of course, pie to eat as well. The event is free.

For more information, call 765-362-4618 or visit the museum on Facebook.

The museum is located at 222 S. Washington St., Crawfordsville. Admission is free, and the museum is wheelchair and stroller accessible. The museum is open 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday.
