Climate Beacon exhibition
In October 2024 and 2025, MassArt participated in Climate Beacon, a conference that brings together leaders and decision-makers who are passionate about tangible climate action. The event emphasizes not just ideas, but practical steps forward. In 2024 MassArt showcased the work of our students and alumni dedicated to innovative, materials-based research, processes, and experimentation. In 2026 MassArt students and alumni showcased works from Fibers, Illustration, and the Objects that Change Lives class (3D Arts).
