What we do
Pop-Ups and Events
Connect with artists, businesses and creative networks. Join our curators at pop-up events in new venues as we bring PEM outside our walls and share unique art experiences.
Public Events
Be in the know about our innovative and transformative programs. From the museum’s larger-than-life exclusive pop-ups in Boston and beyond, to tastings with local breweries and dynamic art making workshops, there’s truly something for everyone to enjoy.
Listening Rounds
We are currently designing GenPEM around your feedback and ideas. Join us at our next listening round, where we meet informally to hear your response to our events and generate ideas for future projects.
GenPEM Steering Committee
The GenPEM Steering Committee members are dedicated to building bridges across our networks and communities. Your participation is crucial, so join us in growing GenPEM and engage with the best in creativity and collaboration. We also depend on the generosity of our participants to produce these events, and we invite you to consider donating to PEM’s Annual Fund or joining GenPEM.
