Thanks to all of the 2025 Revolutionary Art Community Program Partnership applicants. If your program proposal was accepted, a staff member from our department with reach out to you by September 23.

Boston Public Library is committed to providing meaningful and engaging programs to meet the needs of our patrons. This summer we requested proposals for program series (3-6 sessions) from the community to help shape our Revolutionary Art program theme for the 2025 calendar year!

This theme serves as a year-long overview of how historical and contemporary arts (visual and performing) play a vital role in capturing various perspectives of society, highlighting everyday experiences, and sparking social change throughout the United States. This will be the second year of our three-part Road to Revolution thematic program series leading up to the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution in 2026.

If you would like to partner with us for our Revolutionary Boston thematic program year in 2026, submit an application between the spring and summer of 2025.

All BPL programs are free and open to the public, and we are committed to Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion.

We are asking partners to consider submitting proposals that include experiential programming and aligns with our mission and guidelines.
