This week was every little kid’s construction dream! It was dedicated to the installation and inspection of rebar for the space where the elevator will live. Once the rebar was complete and signed off on the concrete was poured. Trucks, activity – this week had it all!

While the construction team was working away the Museum staff were full out in event planning, coordination and fundraising! Last night we hosted a new installment of the Voices from Somerville virtual series where we highlighted the Salvadoran community in Somerville. We also made some decisions about our upcoming Reading Frederick Douglass event at Bow Market. We also continued coordinating events and promotions related to our Access for All & More Campaign which is supporting fundraising efforts for this construction project while also raising awareness of the Museum in the city. Join our mailing list and follow us on social media to stay up to date. More exciting updates to come next week!
