Synth-tember Opening Reception: Friday, 9/12 @ New Alliance Gallery!

[Allison Tanenhaus]

You’re invited to New Alliance Gallery’s second annual Synth-tember!

Celebrating the vibrant intersection of art and science, this event series—co-curated by Jess Baggia and Allison Tanenhaus—invites attendees to engage, explore, and experience the profound impact of these two fields. All free, all September long.

• First, come on down to our Opening Reception (this Friday, 9/12, 7–11 pm), kicking off an art-tech exhibition titled "Deviations," featuring 27 local and regional artists. Live performances include This Bliss’s album release of ‘Grave of Sound,’ DJ A.C. Wiley of High Energy Vintage, and a special appearance by Eugene Mirman.

• A week later, catch free live synthesizer performances at Mini-Blorp x Synth-tember (next Friday, 9/19, 7-11 pm).

• Then, get hands-on at Synth-tember Community Day (Saturday, 9/26, 12–6 pm), a free, all-ages day of activities—lectures, a synthesizer petting zoo, exhibition of local vendors, and a theremin workshop in partnership with the Cambridge Hackspace and Cram Audio*—focused on education and experimentation.
* Please sign up for the theremin building workshop in advance to secure your spot and kit

— I'm particularly psyched about this event, as I will be leading a workshop on connecting your contemporary media to old-school CRT TVs! (Thanks to the Mass Cultural Council and Somerville Arts Council for supporting this 2025 SAC Artist Fellowship Community Benefit Project.)

We can't wait to see you this Synth-tember!
