Opening reception for NanoArtography exhibit
The opening reception for the newly installed NanoArtography exhibit was a big hit! The event and exhibit were organized by Babak Anasori in partnership with the A. J. Drexel Nanomaterials Institute. The images mostly originated from submissions to the NanoArtography competition established by Babak in 2016. The exhibit will be available from now until March 15th in the 3rd floor of Drexel main building. Photo credit goes to Kanit!
