The Art Box Lot

The Art Box Lot

The Art box Lot is an activation of a vacant lot, located in the heart of Hartford's Latino community, with El Mercado, a branch of the Hartford Public Library, two elementary schools, and a community organization all within a half-mile radius. The project site was chosen based off a neighborhood grant ($1000) through the "Love Your Block" Program given to the City of Hartford by Cities of Service, with the goal of preventing blight, reducing crime, and providing a community space for the neighborhood to enjoy and program as they see fit.
