Community Day: Summer 2025

The summer solstice is around the corner, and warmer temps are in the forecast! Plan a visit to MASS MoCA to take in our outdoor exhibitions, grab a bite or a beverage on campus, cool off in the galleries, or join a book talk in the Research & Development Store. We will be open tomorrow (Juneteenth, Thursday, June 19); celebrating Pride in downtown North Adams on Friday, June 20; and gearing up for a full day of FREE programming and open galleries with Community Day on Saturday, June 21.
