“Somerville’s Women’s History Month celebration will not only recognize the tremendous impact that women have had in shaping our city and our nation, but also serve as a launching pad for our city’s next generation of female-identifying and non-binary leaders,” said Mayor Ballantyne. “It is events like this that build momentum as we continue the hard work of breaking down barriers and creating a more inclusive future for all.”

This year’s celebration will honor and celebrate the incredible achievements of womxn throughout history, as well as provide a platform for women, non-binary folx, and allies to connect, share their experiences, and expand their network.
