Due to the popularity of Sifu Diaz's classes, we expect participants to attend all sessions and participation in this program will be decided by lottery. The Intermediate Level is intended for those who have practice with Mynor previously in the Wu style. Join us in this twelve-week Tai Chi Paradigm practice, which focuses on the mind and body connection. Tai Chi is a fluid sequence of movements choreographed in a low impact routine. This is an in-person event at the Main Library. To enter the lottery, please register for the waitlist below. This waitlist will constitute the pool from which 15 names will be drawn randomly. Registration will open Wednesday, July 22 at 9 am and close Wednesday, August 12 at 5PM. Participants selected will be notified on Friday, August 14. Priority will be given to those who were not selected for the spring program. Sponsored by the Cambridge Public Library Foundation

The report finds $500 monthly payments contributed to reduced financial stress and helped nearly 2,000 families meet basic needs; Cambridge’s Human Services and Veterans Committee discusses what the research means for the city’s approach to family economic security.

To lead by example, the City of Cambridge is engaged in many initiatives aimed at improving the sustainability of municipal operations.

The City has set aggressive goals and implemented a series of actions in order to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions to a) prevent climate change from worsening b) and address the inevitable impacts of climate change that we are already experiencing in order to improve the health and resilience of the community.

The project includes the construction of new sidewalk ramps and general roadway reconstruction, including curb extensions to enhance safety for pedestrians.
