Welcome to The OpenNeighborhood Project!

Thanks to all who attended the OpenNeighborhood/ReVisioning Kelley’s Corner event at Acton Town Hall on Nov. 14, 2009. This provided a unique opportunity to learn about Kelley’s Corner, (the intersection of rte 27 + rte 111 in Acton, MA), use new technologies to understand its unique history and geography and create their own visions for its future.

The OpenNeighborhood project grew out of a partnership between the Town of Acton and faculty and students of Tufts University’s Urban and Environmental Policy and Planning Department (UEP). It runs with the help of committed local citizenry and non-profits including The Discovery Museums, (www.discoverymuseums.org) and the Acton-Boxborough Parent Involvement Project (www.actonpip.org). The program is supported, in part, by a grant from the Acton Boxborough Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency.
