Working together

About

The Art for Public Good, is led by its founder, Carolina Aragón, associate professor of landscape architecture at the University of Massachusetts Amherst.

Since 2010, Carolina has worked with fellow academics, colleagues, and her students to create art installations and youth engagement projects that have focused on bringing awareness to our built environment. We have collaborated with non-profits, civic and educational institutions to create publicly accessible art projects that bring moments of beauty, wonder, and joy, while raising critical issues affecting our communities.
