Tuesday, January 28, 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm – Franklin Park Master Plan Community Workshop

Over the next 18 months, the City of Boston is partnering with a team of landscape architects, planners, ecologists, and community engagement experts to create a master plan for an engaging and diverse Franklin Park. Help shape the future of the park and connections to the surrounding neighborhoods. This first meeting will take place January 28 from 6 – 8 at the William J. Devine Golf Course Clubhouse (and if you haven’t been, it’s worth the trip.) William J. Devine Golf Course at Franklin Park was established October 26, 1896 and is the second oldest public golf course in the nation behind Van Cortlandt Park in the Bronx borough of New York City. Snow date: Thursday, January 30 from 6:00 – 8:00 pm



Saturday, February 8, 1:00 pm – 3:00 pm – What’s Your Plant Story? Zine Workshop

Tell the story of your life with plants. Do you grow things? Do family or relatives tend gardens or farms? What is your relationship to the land you live on? Join instructor Alena Mcnamara in the Tower Hill Library on February 8 from 1 – 3 and create your own “zine”–a small photocopied and often hand-drawn magazine that can incorporate images, text, and more–to share your story with friends, family, and others in your community. Fee ($5 for Tower Hill members, $19 for nonmembers) includes materials. Register at www.towerhillbg.org.
