A collaboration with high school art teachers, principals, and artists in the northern Berkshires, MASS MoCA’s 11th annual Teen Invitational brings the work of local students and art instructors to the public for one long weekend—and one fun party! Catch the best of our young local talent on view in the main galleries from April 14 through April 16 (and celebrate it Friday night at 6pm with a rollicking awards ceremony and student-curated live music). Cheering allowed.

Want to dive deeper into the art featured in the 11th Annual Teen Invitational? Drop in between 1–2:30pm on Saturday, April 15 to join Teen Activators in exploring the works on view.

The 2023 MASS MoCA Teen Invitational is supported by the Ruth E. Proud Charitable Trust and the Berkshire Eagle; with important support from Assets for Artists, the Artist Book Foundation and the Pittsfield Education Enrichment Fund of Berkshire Taconic Community Foundation.

Programming at MASS MoCA is made possible in part by the Barr Foundation, Horace W. Goldsmith Foundation, and the Mass Cultural Council.
