ArtsUnion

Started in 2005, ArtsUnion is an initiative to enhance the cultural economic development of Union Square. ArtsUnion presents events and markets, cultural and historical tours, commissions street furniture and public art, and revised zoning to incentivize arts redevelopment. ArtsUnion was once funded by the MCC's John and Abigail Adams Art Program and remains supported by the City of Somerville.

Aaron's utilized tempered glass, stainless steel fixtures, and "live" oak from the Charleston Shipyard.

Aaron also commissioned original art work by four local artists that is embedded between the glass to completed four benches and one kiosk.
