NEFA is pleased to announce the launch of Creative City, a three-year initiative that will make grants to artists to create works that integrate public participation.
Creative City will support individual artists, artist collectives, and artistic collaborations in all disciplines and with roots in diverse cultures, forms and aesthetics. The design of Creative City was informed by conversations with community-based artists, curators, producers, and presenters from across Boston, as well as a national review of artist support programs and creative place-making.

 NEFA has awarded $124,500 in grants supporting public art projects that will take place in the greater Boston area.
"This is an exciting time for the arts in Boston," said NEFA executive director Cathy Edwards. "NEFA's Fund for the Arts has a long history of investing in artistic projects that engage the public realm. From a permanent work conceived through a mobile arts lab in Dorchester to the artistic animation of the Harbor Islands, projects supported by NEFA engage diverse Greater Boston communities, respected community groups and important contemporary artists."
