The Jamaica Plain Neighborhood Development Corporation will celebrate its 35th anniversary at an annual meeting scheduled for Saturday, June 9 at the Blessed Sacrament campus on Centre Street, organizers said.

The nonprofit community development organization will host its annual meeting from noon to 2 p.m. on June 9, according to an announcement on its website. The meeting will include lunch, award presentations and the election of the nonprofit’s board.

From 2 to 4 p.m., the agency plans to celebrate its three and a half decade legacy with live music, dancing, more food, a moon bounce and other family activities, the announcement says.

The award-winning organization was founded in June 1977 after 18 months of planning by about 150 residents.
