1 Best Sight in Boston, Massachusetts

HarborArts & The Shipyard Gallery

Whimsical murals on cement barriers, colorful wooden chairs mounted on the outside wall of a commercial building, large-scale sculpture: together these pieces and more generate an arty feel in the industrial setting of East Boston's working shipyard. HarborArts curates a rotating collection of works by local and international artists across 14 acres, completely open to the public for perusal.
