Join us for the reception for 300 SUMMER, an exhibition of paintings, photographs, works on paper and new media by residents of The Artist Building at 300 Summer Street, one of Boston’s first live-work artist cooperatives. Resident musicians, John Cremona and Larry Plitt of the Squeezebox Stompers, will perform live blues, R&B and ballads at the opening celebration on August 4 from 5:30-6:30pm, to be followed by a reception with the artists.


The artists at 300 Summer Street provide an important cultural resource for the Fort Point neighborhood and beyond. For over 20 years, the resident artists have created their work in a wide range of media. Among its members are recipients of prestigious awards, including Guggenheim and Fulbright Fellowships. They have exhibited locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally.

The Artist Building at 300 Summer Street is a vibrant live-work artist community comprised of 48 live-work spaces and a dozen art-related businesses. The productivity and activity of the artists at 300 Summer Street and at the two other Fort Point artist buildings, 249 A Street Cooperative and Midway Studios, are major assets to Boston’s cultural life.
