Public art activates communities in unexpected ways, says Mathieu Gaulin, Senior Director, Professional Medical Staff Services at Boston Children's Hospital, national leadership speaker, and contemporary art collector. One of the most recent additions to the Board, Mathieu looks forward to seeing how the Triennial will advance city-wide opportunities to interact with public art. We talked with him about the impact of the natural world on public art and the intersection of arts education and community-building.

Matt Thoms illustrates the surprising similarities between public art and startups and how that will aid him in contributing to the Board as one of our newest additions. As co-founder and General Partner at Baukunst, Matt’s ability to identify bold opportunities and counter the resulting risks makes him an outstanding addition to the Board. We talked with him about experimenting with new ideas and sparking community-wide conversations through public art.
