Save The Date! 7th Annual Massachusetts Open Space Conference

Hi <<First Name>>!

Green and open space are essential factors in how sustainable our city is. Many organizations in Cambridge are actively looking at ways to increase open space to meet population growth in the face of climate change. This is a goal shared by organizations across the state of Massachusetts.

The Massachusetts Open Space Conference is an incredible statewide opportunity to learn more about open space work. This conference features webinars discussing ecology, accessibility, climate change, and finances related to open space. Webinar 3 will be featuring Melissa Peters, the Director of Community Planning for the Community Development Department at the City of Cambridge. If you are interested in learning more about open space work, this conference is an excellent opportunity to give you the necessary information to be more involved in your community.

Save the date for the 7th Annual Massachusetts Open Space Conference! This year's conference will consist of four webinars and four networking sessions to provide the opportunity to reflect on the webinars, share resources, and connect with other attendees. The conference will take place on Thursdays in February with webinars from 12:00-1:30pm and networking directly after from 1:35-2:20pm.
