BSM June 2026

From this issue:

Hello Boston! 

This June, we’re kicking off an action-packed summer in our city. We’re hosting the FIFA World Cup, honoring America’s 250th, and welcoming the Tall Ships back to our Harbor. On top of celebrating these historic events, we’re excited to share some ways for you to stay connected and in community this summer.

To help you get the most out of our beautiful green spaces, we’ve put together a list of our favorite parks programs that are free and open to all. Wind down your evenings with some live music at our Summer Concerts, or catch a classic film during our Movie Nights. You can even try out a new workout class as part of our Summer Fitness Series, featuring everything from yoga to Zumba.

We’ve also included a list of farmers markets across the city, where you can find fresh, nutritious fruits and vegetables from local growers. If you’ve got a green thumb yourself, remember to sign up for our Garden Contest, an annual, citywide celebration of urban gardening. There’s even a special Age Strong category for our over-65 residents!

This issue also features our Creative Aging Program, which offers arts programming for local seniors to craft in community. And as we celebrate Pride Month, we’re thrilled to spotlight our Age Strong partner SpeakOUT, a volunteer community building a safer, more inclusive world for our LGBTQ+ neighbors through storytelling, public speaking, and educational workshops.

We can’t wait to dive into summer with all of you. See you out there!

Michelle Wu
Mayor of Boston
