This event is free so if tickets are sold out, no worries - we still hope you'll join us! Exhibit Statement: In this exhibit, Yildiz Grodowski, Erin Palazzolo Loparo, and Jennifer Jean Okumura utilize abstraction as a type of movement – a formless form that through the language of gesture, composition, and scale, functions as a way of navigating the world and communicating their experiences within it. With a physicality and embodied practice guiding each artist’s approach, abstraction offers a mode of understanding the world with particular attention toward the bodily, the intuitive, and the mindful. Whether it be spiritual growth, a connection to place, or radical change following a transformative life event, the works in the exhibit serve as a reminder of the individual and social components that shape the creation of a piece – even if they aren’t immediately visible or concretely represented in the work: Grodowski’s background in dance and focus on improvisation, Palazzolo Loparo’s familial attachments and profession, and Okumura’s personal artistic values and Buddhist-Catholic heritage. Yet even as they’re influenced by the specific details of their lives, they create scenes that feel spacious, wide, and expansive. They take the particular and the significant, and proceed to magnify it up to scale. Curated by Jessica Hernandez Featured works: 1) Infinite Energy by Erin Palazzolo Loparo and 2) Presence and Absence by Jennifer Jean Okumura Learn More -- Artists:

Washington Street is one of the most prosperous streets in Boston and is also the main road. There are beautiful buildings on both sides of the street, and there are many shops to stroll around. It is a very style street and it is very convenient for shopping and eating.

Boat tour

The experience was very good. The tour guide kept talking for an hour and entertained everyone. You can experience all the city views on land and water. The moment you got into the water, everyone was recording. When you met other duck boats during the journey, everyone would imitate the duck&#39;s call to greet each other

The aquarium is well designed, but the venue is a bit small. When there are activities in the school, there are a lot of children coming. Boston in May was still very cold and encountered heavy wind and rain. The ticket price feels a bit expensive.

Freedom Trail

西行阿里

The terminal of the Freedom Trail
This granite monument in Charlestown, Boston, is said to be one of the earliest monuments in the United States, used to commemorate the Battle of Bunker Hill between the British Army and the North American Colonial Militia (OK, I admit that I checked it recently
)
Now this is the terminal of Boston&#39;s Freedom Trail. If the weather is good, you can walk all the way from Boston Park~
The only way to get to the top of the monument is to climb the stairs
There are a total of 294 steps, and numbers are marked every few steps, so that people who are panting and climbing the stairs can have a number in mind

There is actually only a small space on the top of the monument, but looking out through the small windows on all four sides, I immediately feel that climbing the stairs is worth it~
