Historic Lucy Larcom Park was transformed with stunning art installations
as part of Lowell’s city-wide ARTventures public art and urban revitalization program.

Following the successful ARTventures grand opening festivities that attracted approximately 600 participants and observers to downtown Lowell on May 12, The Revolving kicked-off a summer long “Carnival of Creativity,” taking place at Lowell’s Lucy Larcom Park, Mack Plaza and The Revolving Museum itself, all in close proximity. The event was free and open to the public, and featured interactive games, visual art, music, dance, film, theatrical events, feats of science, food, games and more.

This is the second historic urban venue in Lowell to be transformed through “ARTventures: A Creative Revolution in the Making,” believed to be the largest public art and urban revitalization program ever carried out in New England. The “Carnival of Creativity” involved more than 1,000 artists, youth, and community
members who have collaborated on this public art festival.
