  • Through Sunday, March 29 – Winteractive

    Join the Boston Downtown Alliance for the third annual edition of WINTERACTIVE, a free, walkable art experience featuring artworks and interactive play elements at 18 different sites, presented by the Downtown Boston Alliance. Inspired by the vibrant winter festivals and art exhibitions of our neighbors in the province of Québec in Canada, we invite you to embrace the joy of winter as you stroll the streets of Downtown Boston. You’ll find a delightful experience around every corner… and there are plenty of places to eat and shop along the way! Complete details may be found at https://www.winteractive.org/

    One example of an installation is Trumpet Flowers by Amigo & Amigo in Dewey Square. In approaching the towering Trumpet Flowers a sense of shrinking envelops you, as if stepping into a giant’s musical garden. As a vibrant jungle of light, color, and sound bursts forth like a symphony of nature, meander and explore this floral forest and accept the invitation to activate your own spectacular light show accompanied by a curated musical score.

  • Now Through April – Winteractive

    For three months in winter, 2024, Winteractive will transport Downtown Boston visitors into a Canadian winter mindset. Echoes – A Voice from Uncharted Waters by Mathias Gmachl represents the first of 19 artworks that will inspire viewers to put on a warm coat, fill a thermos with a hot drink, and explore a curated, walkable public art experience. All exhibits are free and open to the public. A map and more information will be available at https://www.winteractive.org/ There are clown heads, too!
