FenceART is a year-round public art project sponsored by Newton Community Pride (NCP) and curated by Ellen Fisher. It is dedicated to bringing vibrant, varied, and engaging art to neighborhoods throughout Newton. Each year a jury-chosen group of 20 works by Newton artists, embracing a broad range of styles and media, are printed on high-quality vinyl banners. The banners rotate in small groups to 5 viewable fence locations in Newton for approximately 10 weeks at a time. Over the course of a year, all 20 works are shown at all 5 locations.
This program is supported in part by a grant from the Newton Cultural Council, a local agency that is supported by the Mass Cultural Council, a state agency. Additional support is provided by: Newton Community Pride and Newton Open Studios.
