In this work we construct holographic boundary theories for linearized 3D gravity, for a general family of finite or quasi-local boundaries. These boundary theories are directly derived from the dynamics of 3D gravity by computing the effective action for a geometric boundary observable, which measures the geodesic length from a given boundary point to some centre in the bulk manifold. We identify the general form for these boundary theories and find that these are Liouville like with a coupling to the boundary Ricci scalar. This is illustrated with various examples, which each offer interesting insights into the structure of holographic boundary theories.

Quantum geometry from higher gauge theory
The BFCG-Yetter model and the KBF state sum produce the same single-4-simplex amplitude when evaluated on boundary states called G-networks.
