Boston Uncommon
The Boston You Know by Heart

We all know the Boston in postcards. This isn't that show.

We're looking for the Boston you actually know. Not the skyline or the tourist stops, but the details. 

A neighborhood tradition. A corner store. A familiar sign. A local saying. An everyday object. The things an outsider might overlook, but that you noticed.

Your work doesn't need to depict Boston literally. It can be a place, a person, or an object. An idea or memory. What matters is that it is relevent to Boston as it is not known.

Look again. Show us what you see.

Eligible media include painting, drawing, printmaking, photography, sculpture, ceramics, glass, mixed media, installation, and other original visual art.
