  • Mayor Thomas M. Menino & the Boston Art Commission welcome you to the City of Boston’s first edition of Public Art Walks, featuring both historic and contemporary art installations throughout the neighborhoods of Boston. This walk includes Back Bay, Beacon Hill, the Financial District and the North End. Boston’s public art has grown alongside the city’s significant and evolving role in American history. Our wide range of works mirror key cultural debates and the ever-progressing political and social conditions of the city and our nation. Today, artists and community members work with the Mayor’s Office and the Boston Art Commission to ensure that Boston’s public art conveys the diversity of the city’s past and current populations. Additionally, we strive to promote a varied selection of artistic styles and media. Some of these contemporary pieces are featured on this walk, but this trail also includes some of our oldest and most traditional pieces featuring abolitionists, educators, statesmen and military heroes. As you explore, you’ll likely find pieces both old and new you never noticed.
