About Go Fish
This project celebrates the courageous herring that swim upstream from the ocean every year to spawn. A combination of advocacy by the Mystic River Watershed Association and its volunteers, government regulation, and new fish ladders have increased the population of these once endangered fish.
ArtsArlington will install 2,000 individually painted herring on the brick walls of the Fox Library and surrounding storefronts to celebrate the protection of urban waterways and wildlife, creativity and community.
Go Fish is supported by a grant from the Mass Cultural Council and donations from AlumiGraphics Smooth by FloorSignage, LLC and Blick Art Supplies.
