ArtSEA
ArtSEA (Art, Science, Education, and Access) is our newest initiative that brings engaging community-centered programming to Chapter 91 waterfront spaces. Through events including, creative experiences, marine science, and environmental education, ArtSEA creates opportunities for people to discover and use these spaces, participate in waterfront activities, and build stronger connections to Boston Harbor.
Art & Wellness
We partner with local artists, musicians, and creatives to bring visual arts, crafts, and music to publicly accessible waterfront spaces. These events create welcoming opportunities for creative expression and community connection along the waterfront. Past events have included community crafting events, clothing swaps, open aux sessions, and board game nights.
