“With snow melting and warm temperatures creeping out - we snuck away this past weekend to sleepy North Adams to visit Mass Moca. Talk about some fresh inspiration. From beautiful architecture to the beautiful selection of exhibits, this museum will always be one of our favorites…”

Holy cow! These are some truly lovely photos of MASS MoCA and the surrounding Berkshire hills taken by the bloggers at the Hip Marriage Project. It was impossible not to re-post them—they’re just so lovely. Titles of works added in for your perusing pleasure.

Thank you, Hip Marriage Project!

Balkan Beat Box on NPR's Morning Edition

Hear the sounds and stories behind this Saturday’s band & dance party guests here at MASS MoCA, Balkan Beat Box. On NPR’s Morning Edition, they give insight into and snippets of their colorful (and danceable) music. Boasting a member from the cult band Gogol Bordello, and playing music that has a truly global sound, we here at the museum are ready to put our dancing shoes on. See you Saturday!

Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at the process of creating “Harry,” BJM’s piece that will be coming to MASS MoCA this weekend. Interesting insight by choreographer Barak Marshall, beautiful costuming, and the French language. Who could ask for more?

Check out this arresting clip of Ballets Jazz de Montréal, who will be performing this weekend at MASS MoCA both Saturday (8PM) and Sunday (3PM). Tickets are still available!
