Visiting Artists

Studio for Interrelated Media Visiting Artists Series 

Most talks take place in the Pozen Center for Interrelated Media on Thursdays, from 2 – 3:30, during SIM Major Studio class unless otherwise noted below. The Pozen Center is on the first floor of MassArt’s North Building, with entrance on Tetlow Street across from The Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum on Evan’s Way Park.

In addition to the invited speakers listed below that attend our major studio course on Thursdays, SIM also enjoys visits from many other artists that are invited by the Eventworks producers, the Godine Family Gallery managers, individual students, and within many of our elective courses.
