Join us for Imagine Boston 2030 Week!

The plan was shaped by the more than 12,000 voices that contributed thoughts and visions for Boston. With the release of the plan, Imagine Boston will continue collecting resident feedback to make sure the plan is a true reflection of Boston voices, and that all voices are heard.

Have you shared your vision for the future of Boston yet? We still want to hear from you.

That’s why Imagine Boston will host a week of place-based events throughout the City to offer residents the opportunity to hear from and engage directly with members of Mayor Walsh’s Cabinet, City leaders, and the Imagine Boston 2030 team. Attendance and feedback is encouraged at one (or all!) of the events. Whether on a ferry tour or riding the Fairmount Line with Chiefs, we look forward to seeing you and talking with you!

Events are free and open to the public unless otherwise noted. Reservations are strongly encouraged as capacity is limited on some tours.
