Mayor Katjana Ballantyne, the Somerville Commission for Women, RESPOND, Inc., and the Department of Racial and Social Justice (RSJ) invite residents to attend the City’s annual Domestic Violence Vigil. This annual vigil is dedicated to commemorating the lives lost to domestic violence in the past year, recognizing the strength of survivors, and renewing our community’s shared commitment to eradicating domestic violence. 

Attendees will be invited to raise a candle in remembrance of domestic violence victims and join neighbors from across Somerville at the location. Community groups will be tabling with information and resources. 

Attendees can access the event space through the red door on Properzi. 

The event is free and open to the public. Light food and refreshments will be provided.  

The Somerville Community Growing Center is a quarter-acre, municipally-owned green space operated and stewarded by the non-profit volunteer Friends of the Community Growing Center.

At their Volunteer Orientation, you'll take a thorough tour of the space, learn its 30-plus year history, and take in the logistics of on-site volunteering.

Learn important details like:

• everything from accessing the electrical and water supply to finding the right tools

• where to check for the most up-to-date garden info and tasks, and specifics on seasonal clean-up and maintenance tasks (like snow removal in winter, watering in summer)

• the benefits of native plants in the rain and pollinator gardens and discover the many local partner organizations they've collaborated with over the years.

• the myriad of opportunities to get involved, from garden team to event support, outreach to composting, program planning, open hours hosting and more!

The Orientation is around 75 minutes long, with plenty of opportunities for questions. If you want to dive in BEFORE taking an orientation, visit our SignUpGenius page to sign up for an opportunity TODAY at bit.ly/scgc-volunteer.
