BCA Announces Finalists for Environmental Design Competition
The Boston Center of the Arts (BCA) is pleased to announce the five finalists submissions for "inside::out - Weaving Arts into the Urban Fabric," a national open design competition.

The winning design will transform the Tremont Street plaza and other public spaces surrounding the BCA.

The BCA occupies an entire city block from Clarendon Street to Berkeley Street in Boston's historic South End.

The announcement of the five finalists brings the BCA one step closer to its goal of developing a design for the surrounding public spaces that connects arts to community.

"The BCA will create a distinctive public space that provides a welcoming gathering place, while inviting the public "in" to explore what this hip and historic arts complex has to offer," said President and CEO Libbie Shufro.

With over 200,000 visitors annually, the BCA offers 190,000 square feet of arts space, including 20,000 square feet designated for affordable studio and office space for artists and arts organizations.
