Really nice little museum space right in Cambridge that s a bargain at $10 for admission.

It doesn t have a ton of gallery space but it s impressively curated and really showcases MIT s focus on the intersection between art and science.

There were three main exhibits, Lighter, Stronger, Faster: The Herreshoff Legacy which looks at the legacy of New England Ship Building. Gestural Engineering: The Sculpture of Arthur Ganson, which involved wonky, crank or pedal powered Ganson machine that spring into motion. Finally, the marquee exhibit was The Polaroid Project: At the Intersection of Art and Technology.

The real blockbuster exhibit was The Polaroid Project. This was an absolute feast for the eyes. The curators did an excellent job in walking you through the history of the Polaroid and then showing you how use and techniques developed with works by over 175 artists. Beautiful space, I could have spent half a day in here.

Ganson s sculptures were awesome. Quirky, fun, at times sad and melancholy - you could stay in here for hours. (Pretty kid friendly too).

The ship building exhibit was interesting, while definitely not my cup of tea, I learned a lot about the craft and the blistering pace of design to win the President s Cup.
