Framingham To Host 2nd Annual Find Your People Fair Saturday
FRAMINGHAM - The City of Framingham will host the second annual Find Your People Fair on Saturday, September 27, 2025, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Historic Nevins Hall inside the Memorial Building, 150 Concord Street.
Following the overwhelming success of last year’s inaugural event, which brought together more than three dozen organizations, this year’s fair has expanded to include over 50 participating groups. Vendor space is officially sold out, reflecting the community’s growing enthusiasm for building connections.
The Find Your People Fair is free and open to the public.
The event is designed to help residents age 18 and older discover opportunities to connect with others who share their interests in arts, culture, service, hobbies, and more, reducing social isolation and fostering a stronger sense of belonging in Framingham.
It was the brainchild of City of Framingham Public Information Officer Susan Scully Petroni.
“Events like the Find Your People Fair are what make Framingham such a welcoming and vibrant community,” said Mayor Charlie Sisitsky. “We are proud to offer residents opportunities to connect, build friendships, and strengthen the bonds that make our city thrive.”
Petroni, event co-chair, emphasized the fair’s impact: “Last year we saw residents walk into Nevins Hall not knowing what to expect and leave with new friendships, volunteer opportunities, and a renewed sense of belonging. That’s what this fair is all about.”
Co-chair Maria McHugh added: “Framingham has so many incredible organizations and groups to join, but sometimes people don’t know where to start. This fair gives residents a one-stop opportunity to ‘find their people’ and discover new ways to connect and get involved.”
The Find Your People Fair is part of a larger statewide effort in recognition of National Good Neighbor Day on September 29.
Everyone is welcome to attend this free, drop-in style event.
