FamilyAid Ribbon Cutting
We were proud to partner with FamilyAid Boston to execute the historic ribbon cutting of the first state-of-the-art permanent housing facility for the unhoused community in the MetroWest area.
This high-stakes event required navigating several complexities, including managing local neighborhood sensitivities, launching a brand-new facility for 120 VIP guests, and executing a flawless production in the middle of a New England winter. To ensure a secure and welcoming environment, we coordinated a comprehensive suite of services, from police details and shuttle logistics to professional AV and floral decor.
We designed a strategic guest flow that guided attendees through an immersive three-floor tour, a formal program, and the ceremonial ribbon cutting. The result was a meaningful, highly organized celebration that honored the donors and visionaries behind this vital community resource.
