All are invited as we welcome Little Amal to North Adams. Amal – whose name means “hope” in Arabic – is an internationally celebrated 12-foot-tall puppet of a 10-year-old Syrian refugee girl. She has been welcomed by more than 250 uniquely created artistic events across the globe since 2021.

As Amal approaches MASS MoCA’s gates, she wonders, “What is this place, and is it for me?” Join her to experience the sights, sounds, and energy of North Adams’ vibrant community.
