We had the best time on Saturday visiting Constance Old’s studio!!! We learned all about her creation process, asked questions, and even saw a glimpse of her own collection. It was amazing, and we all felt very inspired to keep creating!!😁
How does your generation sound?
MoCA\CT’s 2026 High School Exhibition, “The Sound of Us: Youth Culture Now,” invites young artists to show how music moves their worlds — from fashion to activism. The results will no doubt be inspiring.
