Egleston Square

City Journalist works with young artists to use their cellphones to document and share the stories and voices of the culturally diverse community of Egleston Square in Boston. These interviews, with barber shop, restaurant, and convenient store workers and owners along Washington Street in Egleston Square, are woven into a series of short documentaries that are projected on the windows of these storefronts for one night during the Winter Festival of Lights (December, 2015).
