The final day of the season is Sunday (10/27) 😔. Stop by between now and then, 7 am to 11 pm each day, and feel free to bring outside food and non-alcoholic beverages!...
This year at the Lawn on D, we celebrated new installations designed by Boston-based firms, and we had a blast at Signature Series events with family fun and local vendors and artists. Thank you for your support and attendance!
