24-Hour Performance Marathon Raises 5k for a Multi-Use Creative Arts Space

Two organizations, dozens of volunteers & acts, one 24-hour performance marathon, all in Somerville. Read more about this epic event!

This past weekend, one of the most epic events took place at SCATV. The Boston Hassle & BRAIN Arts Organization’s 1st Annual 24 Hour Performance Marathon Telethon launched off into the Somerville cable streams and to the vast world wide web! The non-profit group successfully raised $5,000 towards kickstarting the initiation to start up a Creative Arts & Performance space in the greater Boston area. This was a true collaborative effort - with the help from the Boston Hassle and SCATV/BFR volunteers - this event is a shining example of what happens when community pulls together. Congratulations to the BRAIN ARTS organization and here is to many more collaborative partnerships in our future. Read more about their fundraising efforts and their backstory here.
