2026 Dewey Square muralist, Rixy, and projection artist Pamela Hersch in conversation with Ché Anderson, Chair of Mass Cultural Council, and Liza Quiñonez, Executive Director of Street Theory Collective. Together they’ll explore the relationship between large-scale public murals and thriving democracies. This artist panel will kick off a 6-month nightly projection onto Rixy’s The Midnight Ride, bringing the mural to life in Downtown Boston.” ( quote from Greenway Conservancy invite )

Excited by the process of Rixy and her team creating the Midnight Ride, I’m now delighted to study the whole as well as selected parts no longer hidden by fencing and equipment. (Viewing Dewey Square mural after completion in summer 2026)

During two enlightening, exciting events beneath the mural in progress, I only wished my iPhone could capture a close-up of the artist Rixy high up on the boom lift at work on “The Midnight Ride,” Luckily, as of June 4, the WBUR newsletter contains that important image and also writing that heightens the drama of such grand-scale creation! My main reason for posting now is to share the link below, along with quotes, key resources (including notes about her team of artists), plus a few photos from my phone.
