Trum Playground — Cedar St. & Franey Rd., Somerville, MA
Attention crafters and DIYers. Somerville's Department of Public Works (DPW) is giving away free latex paint on Friday, October 9! Stop by the DPW building at 1 Franey Road between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m. to grab some paint (and help DPW save on the recycling fees). Somerville residency NOT required!
DPW will NOT be accepting drop-offs during this window. Non-Somerville residents cannot return paint taken from this event at a later hazardous waste event. There are roughly 200 individual cans/buckets of paint for people to choose from in different containers. This is a first come first serve event. For any questions or more information, please email Alex Cherry, at acherry@somervillema.gov.
