As more restaurants in Natick Center are permitted to have outdoor dining, the Public Art Committee - a part of the Natick Center Cultural District, received a generous grant from the Lawrence & Lillian Solomon Foundationand the Barr Foundation to incorporate art into this new venture.

It was decided to cover the steel barricades with pictures of public art found in and around the downtown area. In addition, Natick Public Works Department helped with the installation of lights on Washington St. which will enhance the outdoor dining experience there. Thank you to the Natick Center Cultural District Public Art Committee and Town of Natick Department of Community and Economic Development for helping coordinate this project.
