2023 City of Cambridge Department Highlights
We invite you to look back at some of the biggest accomplishments across various City departments over the past year, including Arts, Community Development, Human Services, Public Safety, Public Health, and the Public Library.
Short Story Reading Group [Central Square]
Every month we will read and discuss a short story as a group.
This month we will be reading “The Great Silence” by Ted Chiang.
Copies of the story will be provided, and no preparation is need.
Please drop in!
Registration is helpful but not required.
Seniors
Senior residents, particularly individuals with weakened respiratory and immune systems, may be at higher risk of serious illness upon contracting COVID-19. As a unified community, we can keep our most vulnerable residents safe and healthy, both physically and mentally, by adopting specific precautionary measures.
Ask the Mayor and City Manager, Episode 2
Cambridge Mayor Sumbul Siddiqui and City Manager Louis A. DePasquale will once again be answering your questions about COVID-19, the City’s response to the pandemic, and its impacts on the entire Cambridge community during a 30-minute show being produced by 22-Cityview.
