Auditory After Hours: Common Folk, June 5, has been postponed to June 12.

What if you could feel art — with your ears? Our series Auditory After Hours gives visitors a chance to engage with art in an all-new way: while listening to a bespoke experience curated by one of your favorite musicians. Come at night, wander the museum’s cavernous spaces after hours, and prepare to have eyes bedazzled, ears enthralled, and minds blown.

The Common Folk Artist Collective is a community of creators and musicians who — like MASS MoCA — call North Adams home. For this local hero-themed Auditory After Hours, four Common Folk musicians — producer Dan O’Connell, indie rocker Ciarra Fragale, singer-songwriter Melanie Glenn, and electro-experimentalist Wallasauce — have joined forces to create a one-of-a-kind soundtrack for the museum’s massive galleries.

Snag a ticket and bring your best headphones (and smartphone), to hear what they’ve cooked up.

Also available: dive into the Auditory After Hours back catalogue and listen to Tune-Yards, Sylvan Esso, LADAMA, Kaki King, Clipping, or Jason Moran’s recent soundscapes. Just purchase a ticket for any evening, speak with the event staff when you arrive on the night of, and gain access to the past Auditory After Hours of your choice.
