SomerStreets: Monster Mashed-Up

  • Somerville Avenue from Park Street to Union Square (map)

Join the last SomerStreets festival of the year, the spooky and fun “Monster Mashed-up.” SomerStreets is the City of Somerville’s take on the internationally-renowned Open Streets concept, closing busy city streets to vehicles, and opening them up for cycling, walking, dancing, running, and other modes of activity. Through SomerStreets, the City and its community partners aim to promote and encourage easy access to physical activity, fresh foods, and reconnecting with neighborhoods and businesses and their unique cultural elements in a thriving urban environment.

Activities along Somerville Ave will include: live music on two stages; costume parade led by School of HONK!; doggy costume contest with prizes – hosted by Elliot House; giant chainsaw pumpkin carving with Artisan's Asylum; parkour with Parkour Generations Boston; Somerville Media Center pop-up and Community Media Week kick-off, and more!
