MASS MoCA

Wow. This museum opened right about when I left the area. 23 years later we finally visited. Primarily for the James Turrell and Laurie Anderson interactive exhibits. Now I'm counting down the days till we can come back & continue exploring. Be Warned. With all the amazing, diverse art there is to see, you likely need all day here. If you are a senior or otherwise less mobile, there's a lot of walking involved. So don't forget your CBD topicals or gummies. I prefer Chronically Cooking's, but that's another review lol. 😘 One reviewer said you need at least 4 hours to view all the exhibits. What?¿ Maybe to physically scan your eyeballs over all of them, without stopping to absorb let alone read a single placard. We spent 6 hours and didn't even finish viewing all of building 6. The Terrell pieces alone take 15 minutes each and there are 5(?). All I have to say is, if f you don't go and take the extra steps out to sit for 10+ minutes in the Skyview observatory, or use the restrooms just below the gift shop and Cafe, you failed the mission. Only disappointment was the size of their gift shop & the pricing therein. I suppose pricing was fairly on par for museums , but still, nah. Wanted some Jenny Holzer and Turrell swag. Did enjoy the showcasing of local business and artists crafts however. Mass MOCA crop tops were dope, but the cut was all weird on the arms & just an inch or two too short for my personal taste. Probably because I also often like to taste food... Yay my flight is now boarding. Hope you enjoyed storytime.
