A Summer of Pets & Play: Events & Partnerships Intern Olivia Hewang
My name is Olivia Hewang and I had the wonderful opportunity to be an Events & Partnerships Intern on the Programs Team at the Rose Kennedy Greenway this summer!

Canine Costume Fests and More: Events & Partnerships Intern Sofi Sopuchova

Programming for The Community: Events & Partnerships Intern Maizie Watters
Growing up near Boston meant I had visited it enough to be confident in my knowledge of the city- from leaving South Station after getting home from school and being greeted by the Dewey Square mural to sitting on swinging benches in the North End after getting cannolis with friends. The part of the city […]

From Intern to Coordinator: Ruby Maute’s Summer (and Beyond) on The Greenway Programs Team
I’ve never thought about what goes into running a public park, but this summer I learned the intricacies of managing a 1.5-mile stretch of green space rich with flora, sparkling fountains for children to splash in, and free events, from festivals to concerts. In April of 2023, I was graduating from Boston University as a […]
Full Schedule of Fun: Events and Partnership Intern Sabrina Feldman
It’s hard to summarize an entire summer at The Greenway into a single blog post. There are dozens of events happening at the park every week, so I’ve had to scroll back through my (very full!) Google Calendar to remember just how much I have done over the course of my internship as a part […]
