Local writer Mara Voorhees published an article for Lonely Planet extolling Somerville as a tourist destination. Her article mentions most of our cultural high points -- the Somerville Arts Council, Fluff festival, Honk festival, Porchfest, Illuminations Tour, Somerville Open Studios, Independent Film Festival of Boston, Brickbottom, Washington Street art studios, Museum of Bad Art, the annual Prospect Hill flag raising, Aeronaut Brewery, and Slumbrew.
Lonely Planet considers Somerville to be one of ten "most unexpectedly exciting places to see in the United States in 2016".
