City in Bloom
Breathe in the fresh air and begin your City in Bloom journey at the Boston Nature Center, home to Laura Lima’s “Indistinct Form (Forma Indistinta)”. Give yourself about an hour to wander the winding paths, noticing small, surprising moments of nature and art along the way.
Next, head to Dr. Loesch Park for a well-earned pause. Take a seat on Ekene Ijeoma’s “Stone Circle Bench”, nestled beneath the young leaves of a new planting—part of the evolving “Black Forest” project. It’s the perfect spot to slow down, listen to the wind, and let the scenery work its quiet magic.
Finish your day at the waterfront on the UMass Boston campus. Stroll along the shore, watching the harbor sparkle, then make your way to University Hall to see Cannupa Hanska Luger’s “Transmutation”. Here, the connection between nature, water, and art comes together in a final, striking moment
