Happeningz: Event Series



Proof Gallery is now accepting proposals for events from artists working in time-based, live, performative or other ephemeral media for the series Happeningz.

Happeningz is an events series dedicated to enriching and bringing together audiences within Boston’s arts community. As a non-profit experimental gallery space, Proof features work unbound from commercial considerations, providing a platform for emerging, unknown and established artists, thinkers and doers. Our unique perspective and small local space obliges us to take risks.

Happeningz hopes to begin conversations, make connections, encourage community, ask questions and maybe even laugh out loud on occasion.
