Art is an expression of our humanity, culture, and social commentary. Museums and galleries provide sanctuary to some of our greatest cultural treasures; however, it is the accessibility of public art that administers the biggest impact, giving people from all walks of life a chance to enjoy art. In recent years, the Greater Boston area has been home to many evocative art-related initiatives. Join the Somerville Arts Council and the Artisan’s Asylum for an evening with some of the area’s most dynamic public art creators.

Starting out. What is the inspiration for doing public work? Why do it?

Temporary vs. Permanent work


Community engagement and public perception- How much of this is a factor in your work? Is inspired by social change?
