Waterway/ Lightway/Greenway was inspired by the history of The Greenway and featured dancers ages 12 to 75 performing in and around the renovated Rings Fountain. The weeklong Concert for One presented by Celebrity Series of Boston paired one listener with one musician for a series of one- minute concerts, fostering intimate connections between performers and audience members. The Greenway Fitness Program offers more than 100 free opportunities to work out, outside! Workouts provided by BollyX, Boston Lindy Hop, HUB Parkour, UFC Gym Boston and other local groups kept visitors feeling fit. City Winery on The Greenway operates a pop-up wine garden in Dewey Square, to connect with friends and enjoy a selection of wine, beer, and cider. The tremendously popular Trillium Garden on The Greenway has been a summer staple. A full listing of events can be seen on our website - https://www. rosekennedygreenway. org/calendar/
