MAKE A POINT – A COMPETITION
Fort Point Channel is your canvas – We want to know your Point

Fort Point is home to residents, artists, offices, well-known cultural and Harbor destinations, a growing Harborwalk and much more. Though still undergoing a dramatic change, the Channel is already emerging as a virtual "Boston Common on the Water" and Fort Point as one of Boston’s best places to live, work and play. 

The Friends of Fort Point Channel promotes the Fort Point area by offering complimentary events to the public --- and we want to hear your ideas for 2011!  Please join us in a free competition to recreate the Fort Point Channel.

MAKE A POINT FINALISTS

After reviewing many submissions and narrowing down the group to six semi-finalists who presented to the public, we are down to 3 finalists.

Join us for the final presentations on Thursday, May 27th 6 - 8 p.m. at the Boston Children's Museum, 308 Congress Street RSVP is required

The winner of the Make a Point Competition will be announced at the Friends of Fort Point Channel Annual Meeting on June 16, 2010.
