N+T Asks: What does East Boston need right now?

On Thursday June 25, 2020, we hosted our eighth “N+T Asks” conversation. This week Executive Director Kate Gilbert asked you and our guests, Gladys Oliveros, Director of East Boston Main Streets, and local artist Veronica Robles, of Veronica Robles Cultural Center, "What does East Boston need right now?" Together we investigated current community challenges and ongoing systemic issues that affect East Boston's past, present, future. In the comments, let us know your thoughts on possible ways to creatively meet the critical needs of the neighborhood. Let us know your thoughts on this N+T Asks Session with this short survey.
