Please join me for East Somerville Main Streets’ first annual fundraiser, “Jimmy Tingle and a Taste of Broadway,” on Thursday, November 12 from 6:30—9:00 p.m. I’m serving on the Honorary Committee and am very excited to support this great organization.

East Somerville Main Streets (ESMS, previously mentioned here on this blog), is a nonprofit civic group that works to improve the community. ESMS undertakes high-impact activities including the annual International Film Series, the First Tuesdays neighborhood networking events, and the Colors of the Americas: East Somerville ArtWalk. Their work has had a major impact in reinvigorating lower Broadway and fostering a sense of community and involvement in the exciting and diverse neighborhood.

This year’s fundraiser will honor Steve Mackey, longtime Executive Director of the Somerville Chamber of Commerce, and Roland James, head of the city’s Youth Department. It will also feature delicious appetizers from local East Somerville restaurants, entertainment by comedian Jimmy Tingle, and music by local Beatles cover band Beatle Tracks.
