Welcoming Diversity in Needham
June 15, 2023
• People of different backgrounds came together to celebrate friendship along Amity Path.
For the second year in a row, the Needham Human Rights Committee joined forces with the Needham Diversity Initiative to pull together a celebration to commemorate Race Amity Day. Through music, food, crafts and lots of conversation, they created bonds with those who gathered to break down boundaries and learn about the cultures contained within our town’s borders.
