Digital Art and Animation at MIT
[DAA@MIT] is home to many of MIT's digital artists, from beginners to experienced artists. We are a student group that works to foster the digital arts community at MIT by providing members with resources, equipment, and opportunities to engage with fellow artists.
If you're interested in illustration, comics, animation, 3D modeling, or simply learning how to use that drawing tablet for something other than osu!, you're welcome here!

Come draw with us on Saturdays at 3 PM EST, even over the summer! During the Fall 2025 semester, we are meeting in Room 4-253. During the summer, we hold meetings virtually over Discord VC. Contact daamit-exec@mit.edu for access to the club Discord server.
It is with sad news that we must inform you that the CAC, in a somewhat misguided effort to prevent the proliferation of AI slop, is shutting down any club that relies on GPUs in any capacity. As we all work in the digital with tablets and computers, we are the first of groups to go. In an effort to keep the club lore alive, we have regrouped under a new name and are rebranding to TAAMIT: Traditional Art and Acrylics at MIT. We expect you all to respect the change and embrace only paper alternatives. Therefore, only traditional mediums will be permitted from here on. Any member who engages in the egregious practice of "digital art" will be kicked without further discussion.
Next, since it's now April, it's time to announce the TAAMIT April Challenge... PleinAirpril!!! To participate in this month's challenge, go outside, touch grass (shocking), and make a * traditional * plein air drawing/painting. Even better if you do it every day of April! And don't forget to post in 🎨gallery 😉
More info about the challenge here: https://www.warriorpainters.com/pleinairpril
Have fun!
