South of Washington Street, in Boston's South End, is the City's Art and Design District. Over the past two decades, SoWa has established itself as the cultural center of Boston and home to Boston's creative community. Architects, designers, curators, publishers, and artists of all kinds work in the SoWa's historic and industrial neighborhood, minutes away from downtown Boston. We organize the SoWa Open Markets, SoWa First Fridays and manage the SoWa Power Station events center. Visit the neighborhood for the best contemporary galleries in Boston, the biggest Open Studios, high end furniture showrooms and design studios, and a weekly open air market supporting hundreds of local creative entrepreneurs.
