Our EVENTS

Math Circles of Chicago invites you to read about our upcoming, and past events. 

Math Circles of Chicago can be reached at info@mathcirclesofchicago.org.

MC2 holds events through the year. We hold festivals in libraries, schools, and community centers. QED is our Annual Math Symposium, held every December. We also occasional hold special events--for example, we sometimes host a talk given by a mathematician.


We hold math circles in three seasons--fall, winter, and summer. Registration for these programs is an event with two phases. Initially, students sign up for a lottery. Once the lottery runs, we enter the Open Enrollment phase, where students can sign up for any remaining available spots during that semester. Dates below!

CURRENT EVENTS/OPEN REGISTRATION


MC2's Summer Lottery is open. Enroll in the lottery to maximize your chance of getting a summer spot.
