This fall, downtown Northampton will become home to a citywide treasure hunt of miniature public art. Opening September 26–27 and remaining on view throughout October, Fun Sized: A Tiny Public Art Festival invites visitors to slow down, look closer, and rediscover downtown Northampton through fifteen miniature, site-specific artworks hidden throughout the city. Using a free printed or digital map, visitors will search for tiny murals, sculptures, installations, and unexpected artistic interventions tucked into overlooked corners and everyday spaces. Along the way, participants collect clues that lead to the festival's final hidden artwork—the Golden Moment.
The inaugural festival features work by local and regional artists: Adam O'Day, Chelsea Dupois, Cicely Carew, Dina Gjertsen, Erika Zekos, Eva Pushkova, Felipe Ortiz, Fred & David Zinn, John Higby, M. Rudder, Maggie Nowinski, Mary Cleary, Michael Medeiros, Raishad Glover, Sally Curcio, and Scout Cuomo. Fun Sized presented by Bright Matter Studio.
