Natick is hoping to participate in the 27th annual exhibition of Studios Without Walls, which this year presents “Urban Symphony.” 

The Natick Center Cultural District is working with the Studios Without Walls team and the Friends of Natick Trails to bring the statues to the Cochituate Rail Trail in the fall of 2026 after the exhibition in Brookline closes.

The 2026 theme celebrates the beauty and complexity of city life, focusing on the sounds, textures, and rhythms of the built environment. This temporary exhibition of outdoor sculptures stimulates dialogue and celebrates the coming of spring through the integration of sculpture in the natural environment.

A printed visual art treasure hunt, to further engage children, teachers and viewers will be available along with maps of the exhibition. 

This will be the 20th year being hosted and welcomed by the Division of Parks and Open Spaces at Riverway Park in Brookline.

The application for artwork is open through Jan. 11, 2026.
