Radical Collage Collective
Join Community Artist and analog aficionado for a weekly collage and chill session at the Cambridge KiOSK. Radical Collage Collective knows no limits; we use scissors, glue, and paper to sort out all our problems. Each Wednesday in October, we will gather, leave our day lives behind, and search for our dreams among discarded magazines and books. By the end of each session, we will have created meaning from something and left the rest as scraps on the ground to be swept up.
Comprehensive Planning
Envision Cambridge is the City’s current citywide plan, a roadmap to the year 2030, setting out a course of action to promote sustainable and inclusive growth. It establishes a framework for growth management that builds upon and complements existing patterns of development, while meeting the needs of today’s community and future generations. Prior to the establishment of Envision Cambridge, the comprehensive plan for Cambridge was composed of a set of documents: The Zoning Map and the Zoning Ordinance, the City’s growth policy document, Toward A Sustainable Future, and the major area-wide planning studies across the city.
