Beacon Hill Civic Association Mission Statement
The Beacon Hill Civic Association (BHCA) was established in 1922 by a small group of neighbors
whose goal was to protect Beacon Hill's historic residential character.
Today, the BHCA continues as a volunteer organization that helps preserve and enhance the quality of life on Beacon Hill, a historic, urban, residential neighborhood in downtown Boston.
Beacon Hill Civic Association Statement on Racial Justice
The Beacon Hill Civic Association joins in the call for equality and racial justice in our society. Ending systemic racism falls to all of us, and the Beacon Hill Civic Association commits to using its platform, privilege, and resources to help build a community of inclusiveness, diversity, fairness, and respect within our neighborhood and throughout the City of Boston.

Watch our Holiday Decorating Video here!
Although this video is from 2009, the instructions are still the same!
We use flocked wire for the top of the garland and zip ties for the bottom - zip ties make it easier to keep the garland tight until they are taken down! Trim the zip tie but leave enough to be able to pull to tighten
as the days go by and the garlands shrink.
Remember - Decorating Days this year are December 3rd and 4th.
Meet us at the West End Public Library next weekend!
See you there!
