Chelsea is a city rich in culture and history. Through the winter and spring, a team of residents researched and developed walking, exploring different themes and neighborhood.

You can use the guides to walk the route yourself or to explore the information online.

The tours were developed by Ellen Rovner, Pepper Fee, and Lee Farrington with editorial and other assistance provided by Suzanne Perry.

Colorful murals and creative cross-walks are coming to the downtown this summer to facilitate connections and safer travel through downtown.

We’ll continue the advancement of the art corridor of the Division Street Neighborway with murals across four blocks from Hawthorne to Park Street. Another roadway mural in Chelsea Square on one block of Winnisimmet Street will support events in the area.

For the Chelsea Square mural, celebrate Juneteenth with us during a community paint day at Winnisimmet Street. This event is a community celebration welcoming to all. Whether you have artistic abilities or no painting experience, join us for a fun day of connections, celebrations, and making art!

This project is presented by the City of Chelsea through its Housing & Community Development Department and Chelsea Prospers along with Neighborways Design. Funding provided by the Mass Department of Transportation Shared Streets and Spaces program.

Sign here for the Community Painting Day on Saturday, June 19 (raindate, Sunday 6/20)
