OUR Mission

Powered by 100+ partners in Boston’s arts and culture sector, Everyone 250 is a movement. Through storytelling, immersive events, and cultural activations, Everyone 250 is a living commitment to inclusivity, representation, and the power of collective impact.

ARCHIVAL PUBLICATION BOOK

EVERY CITY HAS A STORY

BOSTON IS BUILT BY YOURS

Call for Submissions: Share Your Boston story

Share your art & story to be featured in Everyone250’s first Coffee Table book. Help us tell real stories of Boston, fill in the gaps of stories untold, who Boston was, is and REVEAL what will be – through your lense.

We want to ensure we capture not just our present and recent past, but the 250 years past and manifestations for the future, too. At least 20 submissions will be featured in Embrace Boston’s first coffee table book, with an honorarium for contributors.

But it doesn’t stop there.

Additional stories will be shared across zines, Instagram, podcasts, and live storytelling events—ensuring that every voice has a space to be heard, to be witnessed, and to beautifully resist.

From immersive storytelling experiences to dynamic cultural gatherings, these events honor the people and places that shape our city’s past, present, and future.

Whether led by E250 or our partners, each event is a unique opportunity to engage, reflect, and take action in the movement to reveal more of Boston’s untold stories.
