Custom Art Curation and Installation to Distinguish a Sense of Place

Unlike art galleries or brokers with limited inventories, NINE dot ARTS works with artists from around the world to help clients fill varied spaces with murals, multimedia installations, and more. From hotels, multifamily residential properties, and offices to large-scale, mixed-use developments and interactive public art installations, our custom art collections create a one-of-a-kind sense of place. And our tried and true creative process ensures cohesion with the property’s architecture and design, producing a satisfying and seamless experience that keeps people coming back.

Community Art Planning to Shape Neighborhoods and Cities

NINE dot ARTS develops community art plans (traditionally called “art master plans”) for large-scale developments, municipalities, cities, and communities big and small. We leverage art and culture to uplift local assets and amplify the heart and soul of a place – its people. 

From community engagement to financing and implementation, our community art plans have helped public and private sector clients develop memorable, art-filled destinations that produce social and economic benefits for years to come.

Art Activations to Spark Conversation

Through unique art activations, we help clients increase their brand awareness and elevate their properties both during and after development. Art activations can alleviate construction fatigue, engage the surrounding community, and generate goodwill and good press for the property.

Examples include:

  • Artist labels and QR codes
  • Artist talks, lectures, and workshops
  • Artwork tours led by a NINE dot ARTS curator
  • Temporary murals and installations
  • Artist pop-ups
  • Educational training materials for owners and employees

“Our ability to create authentic experiences for our guests is a key differentiator against our competition, and the art program that NINE dot ARTS created is a prime example. Much of the art comes from current Boston University (BU) students and alumni, which really connects with our guests. As a result, we continue to grow our share of business from BU.”

– Adam Sperling, General Manager, Hotel Commonwealth
