The Special Commission Relative to Designating 1000 Great Places in Massachusetts was created by an Act of the Legislature and signed into law by Governor Deval Patrick on January 15, 2009. Its mission is to identify and recognize the 1,000 most truly special places in the Commonwealth, in order to celebrate pride in our history and culture, increase knowledge of our natural surroundings, and encourage regional and international tourism.
As the largest ethnic museum in Massachusetts and the largest Armenian museum in the Diaspora, the Armenian Library and Museum of America (ALMA) is the premier destination for learning about Armenia's rich culture, history and heritage. Show your support of this incredible cultural cornerstone by voting for ALMA as one of the 1,000 Greatest Places in Massachusetts.

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts invites residents from all 351 cities and towns across the state to nominate their favorite places. The nominations will be considered for a final list of 1,000 Great Places in Massachusetts to be announced in May.
The Great Places initiative will celebrate what is unique about the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, its communities, and its people.
"We all have a special place that we cherish," says Eric Turkington of Falmouth, a former state representative who chairs the Great Places in Massachusetts Commission. "This is our chance to share our passion for Massachusetts places with our fellow residents, tourists, and international visitors."
