Art & Cultural Events List

The next Boston Cyberarts Festival is just a few months away, and we need your support! Right now we're working hard to pull together the very best of cutting-edge digital art, music, dance, electronic literature and more for the 2009 Festival. We've also introduced some ongoing services that we hope you like, including our monthly updates on cyber-events taking place around the area and our new social network where you can meet others who share your interest in cyberart.

We know that the community understands and appreciates the value of the Festival. Here's a sample of some of the coverage of past Festivals:

"Cyberarts ... is the most distinctive sector of Boston-area art these days ... It's when all art is electric, when interactive is the watchword, when the future is now." - Boston Globe

"The biennial Boston Cyberarts Festival ... has given Boston a front-row seat on new developments." - Boston Phoenix

"The Boston Cyberarts Festival ... has become one of the biggest art events in the city - and, we might add, one of the most entertaining. Where else do people from such disparate backgrounds - think super-nerdy techies, flamboyant artists, and hip electronic musicians - mingle?" - Improper Bostonian

"When artists engage with technology or the ideas inspired by new media, they often fold those ideas back into their explorations of more traditional media, creating hybrids that are inspired both by the past and the present." - Big Red & Shiny

The 2009 Festival marks our tenth anniversary, and we're very excited to be reaching this important milestone - but we need your help to make it happen. Please consider making a tax-deductible contribution in any amount to Boston Cyberarts, and help us ensure that the 2009 Festival can continue our great tradition.

In the current tough economic climate, it's more important than ever to invest in those organizations that can contribute to the economy, support talented artists, and improve the quality of life for all of us. Please click here to make a contribution, or snail-mail a check to the address below. And, if you do it before December 31, you'll get the benefit of a deduction on your income taxes! Sounds like a win-win all around, don't you think?

Thanks for your support, and we look forward to seeing you at the next Festival!

George Fifield, Director
