ABOUT LILY LANE
MISSION STATEMENT
Lily Lane is a small but mighty art collaboration located in Boston providing representation to emerging artists from underrepresented backgrounds, created by MassArt alumni Nell Valle and Katie Charpentier.
We believe art empowers and uplifts people. We create spaces where artists can feel seen, heard, understood, and valued. We hope to foster a home of new beginnings and new discoveries for our artists and our community.
