PupFest is a free community event designed to bring local dog owners together for a fun, dog-focused day. Like last year, we'll have a photo booth, a costume contest, activities, vendors and more. It's a great opportunity to connect with local organizations, nonprofits, businesses, services, and resources relevant to pets and their people.
Visit the Boott Cotton Mills Museum for an evening exploring the wonders of the night sky, the importance of night to all living creatures, and what we can do to protect dark skies right here in Lowell. Join a ranger program to learn about how the Industrial Revolution shaped the way we experience the night with a hands-on activity about light pollution or create your very own constellation scope! Lowell Parks and Conservation Trust will bring a live Spotted Turtle and a Blanding’s Turtle, both of which nest at night. Learn about these threatened species and how you can help during the nesting season. They’ll also have information about their conservation properties around Lowell and how light pollution affects our nocturnal wildlife. UML Schueller Observatory will be there to share some of the amazing research being conducted by professors and students. They’ll introduce you to the world of astronomy that can be experienced in Lowell from your own backyard or by visiting the observatory during one of their public open house events. DarkSky Massachusetts is a proud chapter of DarkSky International, an organization established to protect the nighttime environment for all by advocating for responsible outdoor lighting. Learn what you can do to protect night skies where you live and where you can go in Massachusetts to enjoy views of the stars. This free event is part of the Late Night at the Museum series. Visit the Boott Cotton Mills Museum after-hours on the third Thursday of each month to experience the museum in a new light. No Reservations Required Boott Cotton Mills Museum, 115 John St
Every year, DIY Lowell collects community project ideas from the public. Anyone who pledges to help can vote on the ideas in September. The Community Idea Summit is the place where we kick off those ideas, and we want you to join us! The summit is where everything comes together — volunteers, experts, ideas and energy. We believe the diversity of perspective and experience people bring makes the ideas people bring a big success. Stay tuned for more information! This program is funded in part by a grant from the Lowell Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by Mass Cultural Council, a state agency.

Gagné/Pinned & Sewtured Perfomers: Anatar M. Gagné & Madison J. Cripps Shackled by restraints of reality, Frida finds herself unable to paint. In a moment of desperation, she re-discovers her life source—the other Frida. Calle Allende is inspired by an entry in Frida Kahlo’s diary “The Two Fridas”. Calle Allende, a puppet theatre production, brings to life Frida’s struggle to reconcile her broken self and dying inspiration. Frida’s pain has clouded her, but in a moment of clarity she soon realizes that without her imagination she will lose her lifeline. 🥂 Refreshments: Enjoy the bar and original Mexican cousine and desserts. 💡 Dress Code: Attendees are encouraged to dress in Masquerade/Catrina inspired outfits.
