For four decades, the MIT Media Lab has been a place of radical invention, rethinking what’s possible—and building it.

Since day one, the Lab has blurred boundaries between disciplines, between humans and machines, between what is and what could be. It’s not just a lab. It’s a community. A movement.

This celebration will gather artists, dreamers, technologists, collaborators—everyone who’s been part of the Lab’s orbit over the past four decades. Alumni, members, friends, supporters, and those who helped shape the Lab’s DNA.

Together, we’ll revisit the ideas and breakthroughs that changed industries and rewired culture. And we’ll look ahead—toward futures still waiting to be imagined—where ideas collide and new possibilities emerge.

We’re in the early stages of planning.

Details will unfold here. Keep checking back.
