SUMMARY:2026 SMFA at Tufts MFA Thesis Exhibition Public Reception
DESCRIPTION:Join us in celebrating the 2026 MFA graduates during a public reception for “Passages\,” on Friday\, May 15. \n\n\n\n\nOn view May 5–17 at Tufts University Art Galleries in Medford\, the 2026 MFA Thesis Exhibition Passages presents presents work by nineteen MFA candidates\, showcasing their richly varied practices and development in the MFA program. The exhibition’s title speaks to the journey each student has undergone\, in art and in life\, forming a conceptual throughline for the works on view. \nA passage may be a voyage of exploration\, a narrow path\, or the simple\, inevitable passing of time. Artists engage with these topics across a range of media\, reflecting their ability to look within and outside themselves\, traversing concepts that range from the microscopic to the geopolitical. \nPassages is guest curated by ICA Boston Assistant Curator Max Gruber and organized by Alexi Antoniadis\, Dina Deitsch\, Madeline Ditzler\, Laurel Nakadate\, Sarah Prickett\, and Kenson Truong. \nJoin us in celebrating the 2025 MFA graduates during a public reception on Friday\, May 15 from 5-8PM at TUAG / Medford (Aidekman Arts Center).

SUMMARY:Rehearsal as Research: “Japanese Tea Ceremony” in Practice and in Performance
DESCRIPTION:Rehearsal as Research: “Japanese Tea Ceremony” in Practice and in Performance\nIn contemporary Japanese Tea (chanoyu\, chado\, or “Japanese tea ceremony”)\, practitioners learn to distinguish between “practice” in the sense of rehearsal\, as carried out in weekly recurring sessions with an instructor versus what is often called “real tea\,” corresponding to the sense of performance\, the public culmination of rehearsal. Despite the seeming primacy of the “real” Performance\, most practitioners end up spending the vast majority of the time they spent doing tea in rehearsal\, not in performance. Of course\, such a divide is also fundamental to theater practice as well\, and paying more attention to what is learned in each format and where scholars derive their knowledge of the whole practice may open new insights into where and how performative norms like “identity” and “culture” are maintained\, perpetuated\, and evolve. \nMichelle Liu Carriger\, PhD has been studying the Urasenke tradition of chado (“tea ceremony”) since 1999\, in various locations including Los Angeles\, Colorado\, Kansas\, Boston\, London\, and in Kyoto during a yearlong Midorikai fellowship at the Urasenke Gakuen Professional College of Chado. She holds a second degree Urasenke teaching license and chamei (tea name) “Somi.” Additionally\, she researches and writes academically on tea practice and theory and spent two years in rural Ehime prefecture\, Japan\, studying in the Omotesenke lineage.

SUMMARY:Beverly Semmes: Boulders / Flag / Flip / Kick Artist Conversation + Reception
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a public conversation at 6PM at TUAG / Medford (Aidekman Arts Center) with exhibiting artist Beverly Semmes\, exhibition curator TUAG Director Dina Deitsch\, and Camilo Alvarez followed by a reception celebrating the exhibition. \nTufts/SMFA alumna Beverly Semmes (BA/BFA ’82) has built an extensive practice in sculpture\, painting\, film\, performance\, and fashion that probes the paradoxes and complexities of the body and its representation. Best known for her oversized dress sculptures\, begun in the early 1990s—followed by her FRP (Feminist Responsibility Project) series of over-painted pornographic images and clay sculptures—Semmes has played with the scale\, exposure or covering\, and abstraction of the female form for over three decades. \nYou can RSVP and learn more here.

SUMMARY:Friday Activations: Conlon Nancarrow Compositions
DESCRIPTION:Tufts University Art Galleries presents the last of four player piano sessions featuring the boundary-defying work of composer Conlon Nancarrow\, in conjunction with the current exhibition “Impossible Music.” Nancarrow was one of the first composers to work with “auto-playing” musical instruments\, particularly the player piano\, because of its ability to perform scores that exceeded human ability. Nancarrow’s early work was characterized by its extreme technical demands\, only rarely performed to his satisfaction. He turned to machines as a means to faithfully hear his compositions\, which are complex arrangements of tempo\, rhythm\, and pitch. The program features four compositions from “Study for Piano.” \n
