An Emerald Evening celebrates one of the Emerald Necklace Conservancy’s founders and newly appointed Life Trustee, former Governor Michael S. Dukakis.
Michael has been a champion of parks and open space long before and continuously after his terms as Governor. As a life-long Brookline resident, he personally invests in the beauty of the Emerald Necklace by picking up trash as he walks through the park to work each day. Out of public office, he continues to advocate for the benefits of urban park land and the people who depend on their resources. He has challenged all of us to follow suit.
An Emerald Evening will be held on November 19, 2014 at 6 p.m. in the Koch Galleries of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. The evening will include a lively reception and the awarding of the Olmsted Award of Excellence to our honored guest.
