Stoop party wrap-up

Sept 18, a festival like no other – residents, businesses and institutions along Mass Ave, celebrating who we are with live jazz on both sides of Chester Park, carriageway closed to make a fun space for kids, free raffle with prizes from local businesses, Mass Ave data diving hosted by NU Prof Michelle Borkin, toy boats and duckies in the fountains, South End Historical Society open house, Juan Perez’ paintings from our ‘hood, and MUCH more! Tonight, we’ll check in with the organizers of our Mass Ave Coalition Festival and welcome volunteers.
