A note from ECA's Arts & Culture Program Director
Dear ECA Community,
Easthampton City Arts is thrilled to announce our 20th Anniversary Year of community arts and cultural programming in the City of Easthampton! We extend our immense gratitude to each and every one of you who has played a part in establishing our organization, volunteered as an ECA Committee & Subcommittee Member, participated as a Visual Artist, Musician, Poet, or Performer, contributed to our programming as an event attendee or volunteer, and has shared your voice and vision with us as dedicated community members!
As a municipal organization, we orient ourselves and operate in direct response and relationship to this vital and evolving community we are a part of — and we are simultaneously honored, proud, and humbled to reach this meaningful milestone, as the direct result of working and growing together. Thank you all so much!
To celebrate, we’ve got a robust lineup of public programming throughout 2025 that’s free and engaging for people of all ages — and we encourage you all to mark your calendars for all that’s to come! And, if you aren’t familiar with ECA’s unique history and role in the City, you can learn more about it here.

“Step into Hashi’s beautiful new space inside 50 Arrow Gallery—an expanded environment for handmade Japanese ceramics, thoughtfully sourced textiles, and quiet discovery. Join us for our grand opening during Art Walk and experience the evolving vision of Hashi: a gallery, a salon, a place to pause. With new work on display and tea and books to linger over, this new chapter is also the first public expression of the 50 Arrow Gallery’s Small Arts Business Incubation Program—an experiment in creative space-making and community support.“

Featured pop-up artists:
• Econock @econock_studio:
“Econock is doing something really different in the world of fashion. They turn industrial waste into striking, high-end accessories, pushing the boundaries of upcycled design while staying true to their commitment to ethical, sustainable practices. Their work is thoughtful, innovative, and definitely worth checking out.”
• Brilliant Trades @brillianttrades:
“Brilliant Trades is bringing their ceramics, embroidery, tiny stuff and more to the Tiny Pop-Up Market, and you’re gonna want to see this table up close. Think adorable handmade goods, delightfully small treasures, and a whole lot of charm packed into every piece.”

Today’s #ecamondaymemories is dedicated to the beloved sculpture ‘Center of the Universe’ by Artist Brendan Stecchini⭐️
This interactive sculpture, on Easthampton’s Promenade Park, was erected in 2016 and
funded by a Cultural District Grant from the Massachusetts Cultural Council @masscultural and the Realtors Association’s Creative Placemaking Grant.
Stecchini’s design “combines four highly-polished, stainless steel megaphones mounted at different heights and angles to a base engraved with a solar compass to indicate the four directions. The artist hopes that people of all ages will stand at the center of the sculpture, using the megaphones to speak out to the world, while simultaneously reflecting on the great scale and magic of the universe surrounding them.”
Thank you Brendan for your vision and work! If you would like to learn more about Brendan’s background and this piece, you can visit easthamptoncityarts.com for more info. We hope you’ll visit ‘Center of the Universe’ to experience in person!💫
