THE BALL

Imagine an art event where instead of looking at objects on walls, we looked at each other. Where instead of going to see art, we became it. Where the lines between artist, art and attendees blur, and our collective human nature is once again aligned with nature itself.​

This is the inspiration behind MassQ Ball 2025: Color - an intergenerational, cross-cultural celebration of the arts and culture of Boston's many communities of color.

The EXPERIENCE

The MassQ Ball centers on the art practice of MassQing, which uses the human face as a canvas to create living works of art. Derived from ancient traditions of body decoration practiced around the world, MassQing gives the Ball the unique potential to bring seemingly disparate cultures and peoples together.

“If we, together, could author our own creation story, what would we create?”
