Mattapan Square Pop Up Plaza

Experience a street transformed into additional pedestrian space in Mattapan Sq on Sunday July 28th

July 28, 2019
Event Date2019-07-28T12:00:00 - 2019-07-28T18:00:00

Join the Mayor's Office of New Urban Mechanics (MONUM) and the Solomon Foundation in partnership with #MattapanLove for the Mattapan Square Pop-Up Plaza. We hope the pop-up in front of a local favorite, Brothers Deli & Restaurant, will be a space for the community to play, gather, and connect.  The plaza will be up from 12 pm to 6 pm. Feel free to come in and out of the space, stop by for a quick look or sit down and enjoy.

 

We are excited to be a #MattapanLove collaborator this summer! #MattapanLove is a series of community events sponsored by Boston's Food Forest, Farmer's Collaborative, Greater Mattapan Neighborhood Council and Ideal Mixer. The purpose is to promote Mattapan as a destination and activate vacant spaces with art & culture with events in Ryan Park on July 28th and August 18th. Visit linktr.ee/mattapan.love for more information.
