What has happened since the last time we discussed Mattapan Square + Blue Hill Ave as a community over cocktails and mocktails? Consult LeLa and SPARK Boston are coming back to Kay's Oasis!

Hear project updates from Consult LeLa, Boston Transportation Department, Boston Planning and Development Agency, and the MBTA and about what they have heard from residents like you since July 2022. Not only that, you can still give your feedback in an informal environment, without the pressure of a traditional public meeting. Come through, enjoy food by Everybody Gotta Eat, vibe with DJ Whysham, and enjoy the cash bar with us!

There will be a 30-minute speaking portion to highlight the Mattapan Square section of the Blue Hill Avenue Transportation Action Plan. There is also an opportunity to plug into SPARK Boston with the open 2023-2024 SPARK Boston Council applications!

In honor of One Boston Day, the Boston Environment Department and Boston Planning & Development Agency are teaming up with the Department of Conservation and Recreation and Neponset River Watershed Association to host a cleanup of Tenean Beach in Dorchester.

When you think of "Boston neighborhoods", downtown may not be the first thing that comes to mind. Still, as Mayor Wu continues to lead downtown revitalization in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, residents and businesses alike call Downtown Boston home. Join us at 3rd Space at the heart of Downtown Crossing for snacks, drinks, and civic updates from special City Hall guests!

Presented in partnership with Downtown Boston Business Improvement District (BID), the SPARK Boston Neighborhood Social is the perfect place to learn more about organizations and happenings in the neighborhood we're visiting, meet new friends from across the city, and get civically engaged. We'll also have more information about the 2023-2024 SPARK Boston Council application on hand, and look forward to talking about how you can get involved with SPARK Boston! 

Please note: this is a 21+ event.
