We won a great new grant!

Navy Yard Garden & Art (NYG&A) is thrilled to share some good news with you.  We have been awarded a Neighborhood Downtown Activation Grant for our newest public art project called the Bridge of Joy.  This installation, to be installed in the summer of 2025, is aimed at uniting our community of Charlestown through public art.  

We are thankful to the Mayor’s Office of Arts and Culture for providing funding for the Bridge of Joy and grateful for their support in bringing public art to Charlestown.  NYG&A will collaborate with these esteemed community partners (listed below) to bring the Bridge of Joy to life through programming and community events.
