Boston 250: A City Woven Together, an Interactive Community Mural at Boston Harborfest

Boston Harborfest and presenting sponsor Citizens invite visitors to become part of history at Christopher Columbus Park this Fourth of July weekend. Stop by the interactive mural installation, Boston 250: A City Woven Together, and help create a community artwork celebrating the 250th anniversary of the United States.

Created in partnership with Artists for Humanity, the mural honors the history, culture, and community of Boston while looking toward the future. Guests of all ages are welcome to contribute to the piece throughout the weekend as part of this free, family-friendly activation.

Following its debut at Harborfest, the mural will spend the summer at Artists for Humanity before Citizens donates it to Boston Public Schools for permanent display at a local high school.

The interactive mural is free and open to the public as part of Boston Harborfest, Boston's Official Fourth of July Celebration, running July 2-4 across the city's waterfront and downtown neighborhoods.
