Murals in Downtown Lowell
Coming Summer 2026
Lowell Arts is leading an exciting public art initiative that will bring new energy to our community in 2026. As the lead consultant for the City of Lowell's public art program, we're working closely with community members and city partners to identify meaningful locations and themes that reflect our town's unique identity and strengthen civic pride. We are looking to create a series of murals beginning Summer 2026.
Stay tuned for artist opportunities and project updates!

We're continuing to explore exciting possibilities for public art throughout Lowell and want to hear from you! We invite you to take a few minutes to share your thoughts in our survey — your ideas will directly influence how we transform public spaces into creative gathering places that reflect our community's character. Would you like to see murals, sculptures, community-driven installations, landmark structures? Your input will help guide this creative initiative.
Then & Now Project
June 28 – July 19, 2025
Lowell Arts has partnered with the City of Lowell Downtown Development Authority to launch a public art initiative, starting this summer with "The Then and Now Project" - an interactive gallery experience where community members can share stories about past public art projects, mark locations on a city map where they envision public art installations, and contribute ideas about themes and stories that should be represented. Your participation will directly inform the planning process that continues through fall and winter, leading to future public art projects launching next summer.
