Flag Parade to City Hall – Welcoming Remarks and Reception

Don’t miss Welcoming Week Lowell’s kick-off, with flag-bearers representing many countries of origin converging on City Hall at 6 pm from several different nearby neighborhoods. (Come a few minutes early to watch them arrive.)

The parade will be followed by brief welcoming remarks from Mayor Samaras, Gordon Halm of the African Community Center of Lowell, Rep. Rady Mom, and senior staff at the International Institute of New England.

A reception of traditional desserts follows immediately afterward, where you can also chat with speakers, flag-bearers, and other attendees. In the event of rain, the reception will move inside City Hall.

We look forward to seeing you there!
