Urbano 3-Day Summer Arts Showcase

Urbano 3-Day Summer Arts Showcase

Presented by Urbano Project at Multiple Locations

Join Youth + Adult Participants and Urbano Artists-in-Residence (AIR) for three showcases of artwork created in our Summer 2022 projects: from installation art and sculpture, to performance art and theater! All three events are free and open to the public. Please see below for each event's location.

Youth Artists in the “Making Oasis” project with Artist-in-Residence Joseph Madres will present their transformed green space in Hyde Park, tour us around their outdoor art installations (sculpture, mosaics, and more), present performances, and lead artmaking activities. Food and refreshments provided. Closed-toed shoes are highly recommended.

Adult participants in the “Performance: History, Ritual, Identity” Community Art Project with Artist-in-Residence Lani Asunción will present their final, collective performance exploring identity and place-based histories in Boston. Masks will be required for this indoor event.

Youth Artists in the “Through Our Eyes: Reflections on Climate Justice” project with Artist-in-Residence Sarah Plotkin and a group of older adults from Back of The Hill apartment complex will perform stories of climate justice in Boston, inspired both by personal experience and one-on-one interviews with climate justice activists. Masks will be required for this indoor event.
