Post Grad and Alumni Resources
The SIM community extends far beyond the walls of MassArt’s Campus.
From its early days in Space46 (pre 1990) and North175 (1990-2002) to the Tower Auditorium (2002-2004), N181, and the Pozen Center (post 2004), SIM has built a vibrant, interconnected community of artists, makers, and creative thinkers whose work reaches across disciplines and around the world.
MassArt SIM alums are in Boston, West Virginia, Colorado, Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, Thailand, Holland, Viet Nam, and Italy – to name a few locations.
Students that graduate from SIM are uniquely prepared for lives as self-motivated artists as well as professionals in many commercial and non-profit fields.
SIM grads have started their own galleries, TV shows, and businesses; worked as non-linear film and sound editors in Hollywood, New York and Boston; as stage crew for theaters in New York City; as web developers for award-winning studios; as educators at Harvard, Stanford, Mills, Carnegie Mellon, and the New England Aquarium; and as practicing, exhibiting, and/or performing artists around the world.
Stay Connected to SIM
We think we have a great relationship with our Alum and keep in touch via Facebook and MassArt’s Alumni resources. We have enjoyed our Alumni and Founders Day celebrations (5 and counting!) and celebrated our SIMBIG50 anniversary in the Fall of 2020.
Stay in touch!
