Educating Berkshire County's youth through the arts is one of MASS MoCA's highest priorities. Through our Art Assembly Series of school time performances, public Saturday Morning Kids' Events, gallery tours and educators' guides, and the ever-popular Kidspace, MASS MoCA continues to offer top-quality children's events and develop new and creative ways of exploring the arts with children.
Find more information about bringing your group here or arrange for a class tour of the galleries by contacting our education coordinator Cortney Tunis by phone 413 664 4481 x8150 or email
You can also download an Educators' Guide for the Sol LeWitt Retrospective and plan your own tour and activities!
Art Assembly is a series of school time performing arts events for children. Usually there are two shows, one at 9:30 and one at 12:30. Dates and performances will be announced in September so please check back.
To supplement each performance, MASS MoCA provides curriculum based study guides to every educator, helping you to incorporate the performance into your curriculum. Study guide activities and material have been developed by Kidspace Director Laura Thompson to:
- Provide educators with subject information, artist biographies, and quick pre- and post- show activities.
- Prepare students for MCAS testing
- Fulfill statewide standards in Language arts, social studies and history.
- Implement national arts achievement standards
Performances do sell out. Place your order in advance to guarantee seating for your group. Call the box office at 413 MoCA111 between 11am and 5pm Wednesday through Monday. For other questions please contact Meredith Boggiai by phone 413.664.4481 x8109 or email.
We are grateful to TD Bank for their continued support of this series.
