Arts in Transit was a public art initiative undertaken between 1984 and 1991 on the Orange Line in Boston's Southwest Corridor.[1] It was designed and implemented by the nonprofit organization UrbanArts, working as a subcontractee of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority. The program installed artworks, poetry, and prose in nine stations along the Orange Line, from Tufts Medical Center in Chinatown (formerly New England Medical Center) to Forest Hills in Jamaica Plain.[2] Arts in Transit included off-site projects in photography and oral history. It involved the community in the selection of artwork[3] and was the second project in the country to use federal dollars to site art in public transportation after Arts on the Line in Cambridge.[4]
