#BostonWeekend 14/x
Our weekly thread compiles Boston area events worth the trip - enjoy, enjoy our northeastern Americas! Knowing that folks like you look forward to our work keeps me making this ad-free, human-curated project. Please, help get the word out to your fedi friends: boost the events you like & the first post of the thread.
#BostonWeekend 15/x
Follow #BostonWeekend to keep in touch - following #Boston, #Massachusetts, and your local city/town is wise too.
I often tag posts with interest areas, like #BostonGeek or #BostonTheatre.
And, #Bostodon is for planning local meetups!
