Vacation Week: Crafternoon Friendship Bracelets (Collins)
Visit during school vacation week for a special edition of crafternoon. Learn to make bracelets by knotting colored threads into a repeated design. Share this symbol of friendship with someone special or tie around your own wrist.
Recommended for children ages 6-12 and their caregivers.
Celebrating Cambridge Language Diversity
Using 30 languages represented in Cambridge, the new Welcome poster states, “You are welcome here,” and was woven together in a quilt-like design to represent the City’s rich cultural diversity. It also contains text to remind community members of their right to receive services and information in their preferred language, regardless of their immigration status. We encourage you to display this poster in a public-facing area of your department, like a reception desk. The poster is intended to convey solidarity with our immigrant community members visually. It can also be used as a tool for visitors to indicate the language they prefer to communicate in, which will help City staff coordinate appropriate interpretation or translation follow up.
