Where: Lowell, Massachusetts at the intersection of Market and Palmer Streets
When: Saturday, September 22, 2018
Details: Lowell, Massachusetts will once again host the annual Kinetic Sculpture Race on Saturday, September 22, 2018. Sitting squarely at the crossroads of science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics, this third annual Kinetic Sculpture Race is comprised of home-engineered kinetic sculptures, all-terrain, human-powered vehicles with an artistic twist, tackling mud, sand, water, gravel and pavement over the course of the day. The opening ceremonies will take place at the intersection of Market and Palmer Streets with a rousing kickoff at 10:30AM, followed by the start of the race.
Day-long events include viewing the race at the various obstacle locations around Lowell, interacting with competitors and officials, and enjoying a fun, family friendly atmosphere against a backdrop of whimsical racing machines. At 1PM, spectators can partake in a plethora of food trucks and live entertainment while cheering on the competitors as they attempt navigating the waters of the Merrimack River at the DCR Lowell Heritage State Park. The entire course is open to the public, free of charge and great for all ages!
