Art for All: Creativity Without Boundaries

Art for All is dedicated to inspiring the human spirit through art! We design and pilot collaborative public art projects with contributions from hundreds of people. These community programs contribute to the creative and welcoming character of West Concord. Since 2019, we have participated in hundreds of displays and workshops, led art activities for the annual festivals Discover West Concord Day and Spring into West Concord, created eight murals across the community, and participated in the annual Brighter Together Lantern Parade. The Art for All Abilities program- serving teens and adults with developmental disabilities - is an expression of our belief that everyone deserves to have the opportunity to gather, to work creatively, and to contribute to the larger community. Art for All is a non-profit organization. Your support and donations help us create more art with more people! To get involved, contact us at hello@artforallconcord.org.

The Fall Issue is Here!

It’s Fall - time to venture out and explore the places, people, and stories that make this region so special. Begin by planning a day out with our special insert, “An Apple Picking Road Trip.” Our second special guide invites you to spend a day exploring West Concord. Discover the fascinating lives Henry David Thoreau lived after leaving Walden Pond and encounter a possible Hawthorne family curse, a forgotten Yankee hero, and Ruth Robinson Wheeler. And of course, concerts, exhibitions, festivals, walks, talks, and family activities await you throughout the season. Turn to “Things to See & Do this Fall” and “Arts Around Town” for all the details. Happy fall.
