DIY Lowell Sunset Showcase
The 1st Annual DIY Lowell Sunset Showcase fundraiser will be an evening for building community, and building funds, to support community-led projects. We will be sharing stories and news about our past, ongoing, and future projects on Gallagher and Cavanaugh‘s beautiful rooftop deck in downtown Lowell. Tickets are $50–or $150 for a business sponsorship with two tickets–and includes appetizers from local favorites Southern Twist and Powerhouse Juice. You’ll also be treated to beer, wine, and dessert.
Community Chill Night
The 2022 Community Chill Night is DIY Lowell’s fourth annual chili and stew cook-off event! After two COVID years off, we’re back with music, games, community awards, and a DIY “Chilly” Dessert! Our goal is to build community in Lowell by bringing together young people and elders, downtown and neighborhoods, townies and newcomers. This annual fundraiser celebrates the projects and events that have activated our underused spaces, brought diverse populations together, and made Lowell better. Check out the Community Chill Night page to donate/RSVP, nominate an individual or group as Volunteer of the Year and for the Community Transformation Award, register a chili/stew contest entry, volunteer, and more!
