Public Art On View in Boston

Connecting with the city

Public art is always unfolding across Boston. Below is a complete list of our projects currently on view. These works—from past Triennial, Accelerator, and Now + There initiatives—remain accessible across the city, opening up Boston and transforming a culturally and racially closed city into an open one. Each piece offers a different way to see, move through, and connect with the city. Visit our map to explore these works across the city.
