SoWa Art + Design District

SoWa (South of Washington) is a South End arts district centered at converted industrial buildings that house artist studios, galleries, and creative businesses. The district hosts the SoWa Open Market on Sundays (seasonal), featuring local artists, designers, and food vendors, and periodic art studio open-house events. SoWa has helped anchor Boston's contemporary arts scene by providing affordable studio space and a regular public marketplace for local makers.
