FOUR CORNERS WEEKEND
The Greater Four Corners Action Coalition hosts Four Corners Weekend every year to celebrate the rich culture and unity of the Dorchester community. It provides an opportunity to bring together residents, partners, and local leaders to collaborate on building a stronger, more vibrant neighborhood.
The Four Corners Weekend kicks off on Friday with a community fish fry, catered by Down Home Cooking, a beloved soul food restaurant in the neighborhood.
Saturday begins with a vibrant community market featuring local vendors, followed by a family fun day at Erie Park, complete with a bounce house and activities for kids. That evening, we host "Dining Under the Stars" at Mothers Rest Park, where guests enjoy a delicious meal catered by Snap Chef.
The weekend wraps up on Sunday with a non-denominational worship service at Mothers Rest Park, bringing the community together in reflection and unity.
Other Initiatives
Alongside our major events, Greater Four Corners Action Coalition is proud to host smaller initiatives throughout the year. These include our annual Thanksgiving Turkey Drive, where we distribute non-perishables and turkeys to families in need, and our Community Christmas Party, which brings joy to local children with games, snacks, and presents. Each fall, we also organize a Back-to-School Backpack Giveaway, providing essential school supplies to students in our community, either directly or through partnerships with other organizations. Also, every spring with join the City of Boston in Celebrating Earth day with a community clean up.
