Thanks to the dedication of our board of directors, volunteers, partners, and supporters, we continue to move forward with purpose.

Collaborated on Public Processes with the Boston Public Art Triennial.
Ongoing collaboration with events like WaveForms, and organizers such as Alpha 60 and Transporter.
Co-presented the Boston Immersive Music Festival with Bill Sebastian, receiving coverage on WBUR.
Launched CyberFrames, a game-themed window series curated by new Gallery Director Valerie Guinn Polgar, followed by her second curated show, Stationed: A Response to a Climate of Restraint. These overlapping exhibits featured work by 50+ local and international artists, bringing new collaborators and audiences to the gallery.

Since 2023, three fully funded Game Development Summer Workshops for local high-school students, featuring field trips, professional development talks, and hands-on game creation.
The summer Game Development 2025 workshop resulted in three teens’ games being showcased in a professional gallery exhibition.
Continued support of student-run college shows such as Fresh Media (MassArt/Berklee), Spark* (Northeastern), and Education in the Museum Space (Northeastern).
A commitment to offering students professional space, equipment, and mentorship to debut new work.

Welcomed Valerie Guinn Polgar as our new Gallery Director, who is developing exhibitions and events through Spring 2027.
Began planning a 1999–2025 archival project to make our quarter-century of digital art activity accessible to artists and researchers.
Designing a new educational space in the front of the gallery where local artists and creators can host community workshops.
