Running from April 19 - May 18, 2008, The Colors of the Americas: East Somerville Art Walk will transform the storefronts and windows of Lower Broadway into a mile-long art gallery by showcasing the original works of up to 25 area artists specifically representing the different nations from Canada to Chile. This unprecedented public exhibition will celebrate and reflect the diverse cultures of East Somerville by intertwining bold contemporary works of art among the daily social and commercial life of the neighborhood. By anticipating the 21st Century as the century of the Americas, The East Somerville Art Walk will feature and explore the many interpretations of our identity, the connections we have to one another and our community, and what it means to be an American.
