Free Day

It’s MASS MoCA’s annual Free Day, when we swing open the doors for an extensive program of art-making, gallery, tours, and pop-up performances. Come for elevator music (played live), and stay for Nick Cave in the big gallery.

What to Expect
Plan to spend the day! You’ll find pop-up music performances, a Sol LeWitt photo booth, art projects for the entire family happening throughout the museum, and dance performances in the galleries. Then grab a ticket for Steven Bernstein’s The Universal Melody Brass Band and join us in the Hunter Center at 8pm.
