We approve event listings before they go live, typically within 24 hours.
No business sales, trunk shows, etc. (those would be paid advertisements). Please go easy on the ALL CAPS, exclamation points!!!!, etc.

Wellesley Historical Society program—Route 9, A Journey Through Time
March 5 @ 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm
From its start in 1810 as a toll road from Brookline to Worcester, Route 9 has undergone many transformations to become the bustling roadway that we know today. Follow along as local history experts from Newton, Wellesley, Natick, and Framingham take you through its development, from toll houses and street cars to shopping malls and roadside entertainment. Learn about the evolution of transportation and commerce, and the political forces that helped shape the east-west road that remains essential to our communities.
Register for “Route 9: A Journey through Time,” a free virtual program on Sunday, March 5 @ 3PM. Presented by: Historic Newton, Wellesley Historical Society, Natick Historical Society, & Framingham History Center
