Cambridge STEAM Initiative
The Cambridge STEAM Initiative is a joint effort of the City of Cambridge, Cambridge Public Schools, and the Cambridge Public Library. We work with our local K-12 schools and universities, community organizations, City departments, employers, and residents to open doors to opportunities and career pathways in science, technology, engineering, arts, and math. Our goal is to make sure these opportunities are within reach for everyone — especially those who have faced the biggest barriers.
Free or Discount Museum Passes
The Cambridge Public Library’s Museum Pass Program makes cultural exploration more affordable for residents by offering free or discounted admission to 11 museums and cultural attractions. Learn how to reserve a pass and enjoy hands-on learning, art, history, and more—thanks to your library card.
First/Second Street Corridor Study
Through the study, the City will work with the community and a stakeholder group to identify how to provide safe and comfortable north/south travel connections for people of all ages and abilities, regardless of their mode of transportation, between Binney Street and Cambridge Street.
Neighborhood Demographics Profile 2013
Includes a series of charts and tables with information about the 13 neighborhoods of Cambridge, as well as citywide statistics. The document was last updated during 2013 to incorporate complete data from the 2010 US Census and the 2006 to 2011 American Community Survey.
