BRAIN Arts is the relatively new union of 3 ongoing projects: the Boston Hassle website, the Boston Compass newspaper and Boston Hassle Shows. We three facets are merely one large throng of dedicated volunteers who spend our free time exposing the most interesting music, art, and film we can find, to and from Boston, and beyond. You could join us in this obsession to share rad things. In fact, we urge you to. The more people looking, the more good stuff we are bound to dig up. That is why we have brought these efforts together to form BRAIN.
BRAIN Arts Organization is our newly minted 501(c)(3) non-profit. Now, we and you, the interested, artistic individuals of our great region, will have new opportunities to make Boston and New England a better place to be an artist. We plan to expand our content on the website and newspaper, bring more exciting bands to town from all over the work, and eventually acquire a space of our own so that we may have the stability that so many independent art communities lack – accessible and affordable studio and performance spaces. So won’t you help us?
