A Jamaica Plain institution celebrated a quarter century in business with a special bash over the weekend. Owners and guests at Bella Luna & The Milky Way toasted 25 years (split between two JP locations) with pizza, mac & cheese, and music from Alonzo Demetrius and the Ego. In the process, they also raised money for the Hyde Square Youth Task Force.

Among those on the guest list were Boston City Councillor Matt O’Malley; Meritage chef Daniel Bruce; City Year founders Alan Khazei and Michael Brown; Chief of Housing and Director of Neighborhood Development Sheila Dillon; former state representative Marie St. Fleur; and Massachusetts Advocates for Children’s Hubie Jones.
