Mud U at The Valley

Free community-led classes brought poetry, technology, and local knowledge into the same room during Washington County mud season.

By Charles Dill

As winter starts to thaw in Washington County, Cambridge’s annual MUD U classes kickstart. During the month of March, The Valley’s meeting space will be the location for a number of community led classes and workshops ranging from poetry to AI.

The events are free and open to the public. Built around the idea that everyone has something to teach and something to learn, MUD U transforms mud season into a month of curiosity, creativity, and connection. Whether you’re looking to explore a new skill, dive into a fresh idea, or simply meet others in the community, there’s something for everyone.

All that’s required to attend is a simple RSVP.
