Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Arts (Visit this link)


MASS MoCA is the largest center for contemporary arts in the United States.
The institution is dedicated to the creation and presentation of provocative
visual and performing arts pieces, and of works that blur conventional
distinctions between artistic disciplines. In addition, MASS MoCA functions as a
laboratory for the contemporary arts, fostering experimentation by artists,
encouraging collaborations among institutions, and allowing visitors a
behind-the-scenes look at the creative process.



MASS MoCA is housed on a 13-acre campus of renovated 19th-century factory
buildings in North Adams, Massachusetts. The complex occupies nearly one-third
of the downtown business district.



By coupling the versatility and size of its spaces with the latest digital,
fiber optic, and new media technologies, MASS MoCA is able to present and
catalyze the creation of works that can be shown nowhere else in the world.
These facilities serve as a testing ground to expand and redefine the nature of
contemporary art.
