Roxbury Community College is thrilled to announce its collaboration with the inaugural Boston Public Art Triennial for Triennial 2025: The Exchange. Open to the public from May 22 – October 31, 2025, the Triennial takes place throughout 21 outdoor spaces and publicly available sites.
Curated by Artistic Director Pedro Alonzo and Curator Tess Lukey, Triennial 2025: The Exchange, encourages collaboration between artists and local experts to spark dialogue around issues shaping Boston and the world.
“Roxbury Community College is proud to partner with the Boston Triennial in celebrating the power of public art to inspire dialogue, reflection, and cultural connections in ALL of Boston’s neighborhoods. Hosting Stephen Hamilton’s Under the Spider’s Web right here in Roxbury is an incredible honor and we are thrilled to be part of making his breathtaking work accessible to everyone in the city,” said Jennie MacDonald-Brown, Vice President of Institutional Advancement & RCC Foundation.
The Triennial is a city-wide celebration of public art exploring themes of indigeneity, climate, health, and shared humanity. Spanning neighborhoods across the city—including East Boston, Charlestown, Dorchester, Roxbury, Mattapan, Downtown, Back Bay, Fenway, and Cambridge—Triennial 2025 offers free, open-to-all programming throughout its six-month run. Roxbury Community College is one of over 75 partners supporting Triennial 2025.
"Together, we are creating a platform for innovative dialogue and artistic exploration that reaches across Boston's communities, making public art accessible and engaging for all” said Marguerite Wynter, director of partnerships and engagement at Boston Public Art Triennial. “The magnitude of our impact is made possible by the commitment of the individuals and organizations who are helping us bring the Triennial to life.”
“The Triennial signifies a pivotal moment in Boston’s transformation into a leading public art city," said Kate Gilbert, executive director of the Boston Public Art Triennial. "This evolution is driven by the incredible collaborations with museums, institutions, and the incredible partners that all play an integral role in this landmark exhibition.”
The Triennial opens public spaces for dialogue through the lens of public art. With hundreds of events—from interdisciplinary conversations to multi-generational programs—there are opportunities for audiences of all ages to experience and engage with these transformative public art commissions, all free of charge.
