BOSTON – Flower crowns, plaid shirts and full animal costumes are about to dot downtown Boston as City Hall Plaza becomes a staging area Friday to host an urban music festival.
"Just to see the transformation of the place and the impractical decisions by the clothing people go with" makes him look forward to the weekend, said Mike Snow, one of the co-founders of the "Boston Calling" event.
BOSTON – When the sun doesn't shine and rain tumbles down, the gloom may now be brightened for some Bostonians by the recently unveiled "Raining Poetry" series of public art installations that reveal lines of verse on wet sidewalks.
The displays are the work of the city's Arts and Culture office in partnership with the Public Art Commission and Mass Poetry, a nonprofit organization that supports the art form in the state.
