MAD & Music!
Thursday, August 1: MAD at Night!
A special evening program celebrating all things MAD. Join co-curators Stephanie Haboush Plunkett and Steve Brodner for an introduction to What, Me Worry? The Art and Humor of MAD Magazine with a discussion on the organization of the show and select highlights. Rediscover the magazine that defined a generation or see it for the first time.
Sunday, August 4: Norman Rockwell Museum in collaboration with Tanglewood Learning Institute
Join Hip Hop and theater artist Baba Israel, Illustrator Louis Henry Mitchell, Jazz and electronic artist Sean Nowell, bassist Mary Ann McSweeney, Boston Symphony Orchestra percussionist Will Hudgins, and host Rebecca Sheir for an adventure through visual art, storytelling and music. In this interactive program, participants will help shape the creative direction of a series of musical improvisations that create the score for Mitchell’s original illustrations and storytelling performance. The music will combine live instruments, wind and mallet synths, live looping and beatbox. Baba Israel will take audience input, words, and ideas to help shape Mitchell’s improvised drawings of a character whose unique features and storyline will evolve in real time guided by the audience’s feedback. Audience members will be invited to learn to beatbox, play with vocal fx, trigger samples and synths and contribute their voices and sounds to the loops and music created. No musical experience needed just a sense of curiosity and a celebration of our collective imagination.

Land Acknowledgement
It is with gratitude and humility that we acknowledge that we are learning, speaking and gathering on the ancestral homelands of the Mohican people, who are the indigenous peoples of this land on which the Norman Rockwell Museum was built. Despite tremendous hardship in being forced from here, today their community resides in Wisconsin and is known as the Stockbridge-Munsee Community. We pay honor and respect to their ancestors past and present as we commit to building a more inclusive and equitable space for all.
