SOMERVILLE (May 26, 2015)—After time traveling to the 1980s and ’90s the last two years, Somerville Local First is throwing it WAY back to the 1950s for its Third Annual Prom this summer. Join us on Friday, June 26 from 8 p.m.midnight at Cuisine en Locale (156 Highland Ave.) as we go Back to the Future.
