Alumni Events

Join us for alumni meetups, exhibitions, lectures, workshops, special events, and more.

It’s easier than ever to stay connected with fellow alumni and the MassArt community- both in-person and virtually! Alumni can take advantage of the many Visiting Artists & Lecture Series, departmental exhibitions, events at the MassArt Art Museum (MAAM), and more.

Alumni Maker Days

MassArt Alumni Maker Days are a new, alumni-exclusive creative experience designed to bring MassArt graduates back to campus to make, connect, and explore—on their own terms.

Alumni Meetups

Each year, the Alumni Relations Team, in collaboration with the MassArt Alumni Leadership Council, organizes a series of local and regional Alumni Meetups. These events are designed to keep alumni connected to each other and the larger MassArt community, no matter where they are. They offer a great opportunity to network, share exciting updates, and celebrate the memories we all share from our time at MassArt. Recent Alumni Meetup locations have included New York City, Los Angeles, Cape Cod, and the South Shore of Massachusetts.

Alumni Haystack Retreat

The Annual MassArt Alumni Haystack Retreat is a four-day event that takes place at the Haystack Mountain School of Crafts. It offers a variety of exciting workshops and creative activities, providing a great opportunity to share experiences, skills, and memories with fellow MassArt alumni, faculty, and friends in the stunning setting of Deer Isle, ME. This year marks the 20th anniversary of the Alumni Retreat.

Alumni Biennial Juried Exhibition

Since 2011, Massachusetts College of Art and Design has organized Biennial Juried Alumni Exhibitions to showcase the breadth of talent, creative excellence, and ingenuity embodied by MassArt’s alumni. Thematically broad in scope to include work across all disciplines, submissions are juried by a panel of industry professionals. These exhibitions are an opportunity for our alumni to exhibit their work in a professional gallery setting on the MassArt campus.

Reunions

The MassArt Alumni Relations office does not plan formal annual reunions for our alumni. However, if you or your classmates are interested in planning a reunion, we would be more than happy to assist you with communications and planning efforts.
