One of the country's oldest cities, Boston, Massachusetts began as a Puritanical settlement in the early 1600s. Over the centuries, the city has become home to nearly 590,000 residents located within only 49 square miles - a small space for such an esteemed city where, today, so many historical events have occurred and even more cultural and educational influences are found. Known as a melting pot of tastes, interests, and ethnic cultures, Boston is a bustling city that offers many opportunities for individuals interested in the arts and pursuing art careers.
