We are incredibly excited to be a part of Downtown Lowell at this time during her renaissance. Lowell’s rich history is being honored by an explosion of growth and cultural development. This means many organizations are collaborating to create venues for education, entertainment, personal growth, and wonder. We encourage you visit some the organizations making a difference in this community.

Through public art, exhibitions, and educational programs we promote artistic exploration and appreciation; encourage community participation and growth; and provide opportunities for empowerment and social change.
www.cultureiscool.org - The Cultural Organization of Lowell (COOL) was developed in 2001, as the city's arts advocacy organization, designed to provide general support to the many cultural activities of the community.

Our goals are ambitious and bold, but we believe that through arts and culture, we can bring our community closer together.
