Get ready to photograph around, Charlestown!
This is our seventh year of Through Our Eyes, and we are excited to start passing out cameras again. We always love returning participants, so below is the information for camera distribution coming up in a few weeks. We know it’s a few weeks out, but this time of year is always busy with vacations wrapping up and school starting, so we want you to have the info to plan ahead. Even better, if you know you want to participate, you can reply to this email and reserve a camera in advance!
Thank you for making this project so amazing year after year. We love seeing this neighborhood through your eyes, and we look forward to telling you more about this year’s theme: Home. Share with your friends and family in Charlestown and invite someone to participate (and even compete!) alongside you.
Please let us know if you have any questions or would like to pre-register; we will arrange a time for you to get your camera if you can’t make it during distribution weekend.
Be sure to follow us on socials to keep up with all the Through Our Eyes news!

Marine Week
As part of the U.S. Marine Corps’ 250th anniversary, Marine Week Boston now running through Sunday, August 24. Activities include morning fitness classes, static displays of Marine Corps equipment, and helicopter landings on Boston Common.
Massport has noted that four military helicopters will be based at Logan Airport during this period. Residents in Downtown Boston, East Boston, and Charlestown may notice increased helicopter activity as aircraft fly between Logan and Boston Common in the mornings and afternoons.
We understand that this unusual activity may raise questions or concerns from neighbors. For the most accurate information, please visit the official Marine250 website or reach out directly to the Marine Week Boston organizers.
We encourage you to share this information with your networks so that residents are not caught off guard.
