The City of Somerville hosted the final event in the 2012 SomerStreets series with a 2-mile celebration along Somerville Avenue, entitled “Monster Mashed-Up @ SomerStreets” on Sunday, October 28. Monster Mashed-Up is the longest of the four SomerStreets events, it ran from Washington Street to Beacon Street, and included live entertainment on three stages, five 150-pound pumpkins carved by chainsaw artists, safe trick-or-treating, a costume parade, skateboard demonstrations, and much, much more. Somerville Mayor Joseph Curtatone also helped out with face painting at the event.
