Boston Centers for Youth & Families, the Mayor's Office of Neighborhood Services, and the Public Facilities Department are exploring options for a new community center in Dorchester. A community meeting will explore options for a new community center and introduce the study and the study team. More meetings will be held in the future.

Register for the event

This event is free to the public. The show is called, “From Where I Stand”. Sculptures represent the viewpoints of the artists or “artivists” about common social determinants and stressors facing communities of color in Boston. These pieces are powerful statements about gentrification, crime, addiction, police brutality, poverty, the achievement gap, abuse of women, trauma, mental health, racial profiling and more.
