  • Commissioned by the law firm Foley Hoag, AFH created the exhibition The Art of Change—a series of five 4'x5' paintings, created in dialogue with Foley Hoag's Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion committee. Works depict seminal social and literary activists whose commitments mirrored the clients' legal efforts on behalf of those striving for a more equitable society. Accompanied by a graphic installation, the commissioned paintings are exhibited along a prominent hallway at the entrance to the law firm. The inclusion of a video of the exhibition's making created by our Video Production Studio extends both the reach and the story of the partnership.

  • AFH collaborated with Me2Orchestra to deliver on its Joy Agenda project 'Be Our Conductor!' funded by the Mayor’s Office of Arts and Culture Transformative Public Art project. We filmed (and participated in!) the performance and edited the footage to create a video highlight of the best moments of joy from this simple but precious experience.

  • THIS IS NOW! Over three consecutive evenings, teen-inspired art from our Voices of the Future collection was projected on well-known Boston landmarks and live-streamed for public viewing. The talent, feelings and concerns of AFH fine artists, designers, and animators was shared for all to see! Our “intersectional” times call for our teen voices to be raised in response. Our first Community Arts Initiative, the project kickstarted our new Creative Technology Studio. Our Graphic Design Studio designed the event logo.

    Sponsors: National Grid, Highland Street Foundation, and AFH Community Arts Initiative Partners: Masary Studios, 42 Degrees North Media, The Strand Theatre, Haley House Bakery Cafe, and J.P. Licks

  • BCC and AFH came together to film the music “Hope Lingers On” at the Underground at Ink Block in South Boston. Singers from Boston and beyond came together socially distanced, masked, and COVID safe, over two days to work on this project. “Hope Lingers On” is a reflection on hope during these difficult times. “I will not hate. I will not fear. In our darkest hour, hope lingers here.”
