Robot Block Party the Griffin Museum of Science and Industry

Celebrate National Robotics Week with Griffin MSI at our annual Robot Block Party! The event will feature cool ‘bots and mecha-stars presented by area robotics groups, including robotics teams from Northwestern University, University of Chicago, Illinois Institute of Technology and Toyota Technological Institute of Chicago.

Learn what these incredible inventions can do and how they do it. Guests will also discover the many ways robots are increasingly becoming part of everyday life.

Guests can interact with technology including programmable swarmbots, a soft-body robot that can crawl, a humanoid robot that mimics the arm gestures of guests and the Museum’s very own PARO, a robotic baby seal.

All activities are included in Museum Entry. Learn more on the Griffin MSI website.
