On your next MASS MoCA visit, make the trip to Building 15 and visit Anselm Kiefer’s expansive exhibition, realized in collaboration with the Hall Arts Foundation and recently back on view for the season.

With its more-than-human scale, bleak but evocative landscapes, and interrogation of the telling of history, there’s a reason that it’s a visitor favorite exhibition. Come find out for yourself!

(Anselm Kiefer, and all outdoor exhibitions, will be closed to all without tickets to Solid Sound throughout the festival)

Join us on July 24 and 25 for two-day workshop with Wafa Ghnaim and contribute to Jimena Sarno’s installation “Life in the Forest” that is now on view in “Jimena Sarno: Rhapsody.”

Wafa Ghnaim will  introduce the technique of tatreez — traditional embroidery from the eastern Mediterranean — as a form of visible, structural mending. Participants are invited to explore how Palestinian, Syrian, Jordanian, and Lebanese embroidery practices have historically combined decoration with repair — emphasizing reuse, improvisation, and sustainability. 

Interested in participating? Apply through the link in our bio by July 8.

Thanks to all who "spruce"-ed up Community Free Day and welcomed Amanda Lovelee`s "Homecoming" and our trees-in-residence at the Pep Rally for the Trees on Saturday, including Massachusetts` Climate Chief Melissa Hoffer!

Next time you walk through Courtyard A on the way to our front door, make sure you remind our residents that you`re "root"-ing for them with a cheer of encouragement!

Members of the community recently gathered in Kidspace to add the final touches to a Declaration Quilt, a collaborative piece inspired by the themes of connection, belonging, and collective storytelling that are present throughout Lara Downes’ work, bringing together individual voices into a shared expression.

Join us in the Hunter Center on July 18 for “HOLD THESE TRUTHS: Lara Downes and Friends” and witness the completed quilt come to life as part of an evening of music, reflection, and community. The concert will feature work from Downes’ “The Declaration Project,” a nationwide initiative exploring our shared vision for the future.

Our trees-in-residence have officially arrived — and they`re ready for an audience to cheer them on!

SATURDAY: Be among the first to engage with Amanda Lovelee`s participatory exhibition "Homecoming" this Community Free Day, June 13 at 2pm, and stick around for an entire day of art-making, MASS MoCA tours, and community connection across our creative campus.

PUNK is coming to MASS MoCA’s R&D Store on June 26 in the form of “50 Years of PUNK” — a dynamic exhibition honoring the groundbreaking legacy of “PUNK Magazine.”

“50 Years of PUNK” not only celebrates the publication’s enduring cultural impact, but also the artists, photographers, and musicians who helped shape one of the most influential creative movements of the 20th century.

Organized by Ki Smith Gallery, the exhibition features art and photographs by Roberta Bayley, R. Crumb, Shepard Fairey, Danny Fields, Bob Gruen, and Chris Stein, alongside special contributions from Brian Eno, Debbie Harry, David Byrne, Mark Mothersbaugh, Joan Jett, and many more.

Now on view in “Technologies of Relation,” Roopa Vasudevan’s “Requiem for the Early Internet” invites visitors to reconsider their relationship with technology in today’s digital landscape.

The installation features eight commemorative plaques dedicated to websites and platforms from the 1990s and 2000s, each highlighting the positive memories and cultural significance they once held. Through this lens of nostalgia, Vasudevan reflects on a time when engagement with digital technology felt more intentional, prompting visitors to consider how their interactions with technology have evolved.

Get your pom poms ready, because it`s almost time to cheer at MASS MoCA`s Pep Rally for the Trees as part of Community Free Day on June 13 at 2pm!

The Pep Rally is a chance to provide a North Adams welcome to MASS MoCA`s two new trees-in-residence — one from the southeastern US and one from our local region. The trees will be growing together as part of Amanda Lovelee`s outdoor exhibition "Homecoming," opening that very same day, and exemplifying the power of standing together through difference.
