Thousands joined in the celebration of the 100th anniversary of Fluff, invented right here in Somerville’s Union Square in 1917 by Archibald Query.
This madcap, fun-filled festival drew thousands of people this past Saturday in Somerville’s Union Square.
The 12th annual “What the Fluff” Festival featured musical performances, a cooking contest, Fluff-themed games, activities, antics and fun for every age, and Fluff treats of every sort.
This year’s theme of “FluffCentennial: Inspiring the Next Century of Union Square Invention” offered lots of ways to invent all sorts of new fun and Fluff-inspired food, as well as the opportunity to highlight how invention is cropping up again, 100 years later, all over Union Square.
What the Fluff?” A Tribute to Union Square Invention was presented by Union Square Main Streets as part of the Somerville Arts Council/ArtsUnion.
