Christopher FarrellAugust 18, 2017Amazing space and exceptional because of its capacity to exhibit very large works and installations by contemporary artists. You will see things here that you won't see anywhere else.- ChristinaAugust 25, 2014An amazing contemporary art museum with exhibitions in a variety of styles. The space features a rotation of talented artists in its repurposed galleries, as well as special musical events.
Casey AlbertJanuary 7, 2015I love MASS MoCA! This museum showcases the most unique pieces of art. They have comedy acts, concerts in the summer and other fun events. It is a very popular place in North Adams. Must see!
ChelseaSeptember 29, 2014Basically my favorite place in the world. Exhibits rotate regularly. The big room is my favorite and I will NEVER tire of the comprehensive Sol LeWitt retrospective.
IrmaZandl ZandlSlantJuly 16, 2019FANTASTIC. highly recommend. the building itself and the installations are spectacular. Quite a few TURRELLS. Other highlights: Jenny Holzer, the Trenton Doyle Hancock installation and Annie Lennox
It is an amazing place! You have to see it for yourself. Try the restaurants outside in town as well. Frieghtyard Pub is like a Berkshire version of Cheers!
etta ySeptember 3, 2013Xu Bing exhibit is WOW. Take the time to sit and watch the mini-doc about his Phoenixes, which is also on Vimeo but deserves to be experienced on-site after you see the beasts in the flesh.
Perhaps the most consistently well-curated museum I've had the pleasure of visiting, and the architecture and setting are an astonishing complement. Every visit has been more incredible than the last.
Andrew AdamsJune 9, 2019James Turrell exhibit is truly truly spectacular. The “perfectly clear” ganzfeld piece is worth the four hour trek to manhattan easily. Like an encounter with the sublime, transcendent!
Sabrina BoggioMarch 22, 2012love the layout of the museum. you can instantly get lost in the art since the museum is like going through a maze. you could see a level that you want to go to but it's a mission to get there.
Alan MooimanMarch 25, 2019Worth a long day trip from NYC; get there when it opens because it’s really big.
Jacquie SandbergNovember 17, 2014Wow. A must see. Allow for a lot of time since the building was an old mill a lot of the layout isn't exactly intuitive.
Paula SummitSeptember 23, 2016Loved everything about it starting with the building. The exhibits are wonderful!
Andrew FischerJuly 4, 2011Absolutely fantastic! If you liked the MassMoCA I might suggest Dia:Beacon, in Beacon, NY. Very similar setup and lots of large form modern sculpture.
Worth driving a day out of your way for! Always something interesting to see.- Oz LublingAugust 7, 2014Amazing museum showing incredible contemporary art. It's worth the drive from NYC.
Patrick WJuly 23, 2012Visit Sol LeWitt on the ground level first. If you like it, continue onto second and third floors. If not, move onto another exhibit.
Bill HartnettAugust 5, 2011The Sol Lewitt galleries are amazing. Terrific addition to one of my favorite museums
Nico PitneySeptember 21, 2023Remember to sign up in advance for the various reservation-required exhibits!

Mike HemiNovember 16, 2012Leave Canadian art in Canada please. This may be why I never heard, hey who is that famous Canadian artist..
Dave MasonAugust 5, 2016This is the biggest collection of dumb crap I've ever seen. Pink dildos, a telephone pole full of mirrors, a boiler room. What in God's name does anybody see In this crap. Only postitive....brewery
