Fenway Studios - Massachusetts Historical Markers on Waymarking.com

Now unfortunately nestled along the ugly Mass Pike, Fenway Studios was and still is an artist's haven. The marker reads:

"A rare Boston example of the influence of the Arts and Crafts movement on architectual design, this innovative structure has been in continuous use for artists' studios and residences since it was built in 1905. Designed by Parker & Thomas, the layout conformed to artist's standards for north light and working space.
"Painters and sculptors from Boston's art community, some of national influence, have been tenants here, including artists of the Boston School in the early years. In 1981, the building was sold to a resident artists' cooperative committed to maintaining Fenway Studios for visual arts."

Visit Instructions:
When logging a Massachusetts Historic Marker, we ask that you not only describe your visit, but to upload a picture from it. The picture does not have to be of the marker - one picture of the marker is enough. But a photo of you standing next to the marker or a photograph the subject of the marker - those are examples of possible photographs to upload.
