A Summer of Events
The City of Malden has received a grant to help the local economy recover from the devastation of the pandemic. To start this process, the City, along with the Chamber and the MRA, is organizing a summer of events. For eight Saturdays in June, July and August, various attractions will dot the Malden Center area. From car shows, to gaming nights, musical performances, and art demonstrations and displays, these eight days are designed to draw people to the center of the City. Naturally, all rules outlined by the State regarding size of crowds and social distancing will be observed. More to come!
