The Northampton Arts Council is an organization whose goal is to support and promote the arts in Northampton. Originally created as a Local Arts Lottery Council, it began its work by administering a grants program in which proceeds from a state lottery are distributed to local artists, arts groups, and public schools.
Peter Zierlein's Transformer Box Makeover #2 (Pilot Program)
In coordination with the Northampton Arts Council Peter Zierlein painted the transformer box in the parking lot behind LaFiorentina Bakery, right by the Kirkland Ave underpass. This is the second box in a pilot program to get transformer boxes painted by artists, to beautify downtown, prevent vandalism and bring an artsy character to the town (ArtUp NoHo).
