Summer in Boston Campaign - Share Your Content

Recently we’ve reposted our wonderful See You Soon in Boston video and we are now asking ALL of our members to send to us a version of their own “See You Soon” clip. This can just be a 5-7 second recording that allows our members to identify their business and follow that with a message that we will “see you soon in Boston.” We will compile these messages and create an Instagram story with them. Email Dave O'Donnell at dodonnell@bostonusa.com for more information. We invite members to send us Summer overnight packages, events, and offers via The Hub Member Access or email events@bostonusa.com.

Live from the Wang Theatre stage, we will check in with the Boch Center on its current reopening plan for upcoming shows and events. In addition, we will get a glimpse of the virtual tours that have been offered to guests since March and learn what the future holds for Boch Center Tours and The Folk Americana Roots Hall of Fame.    We'll also give a warm welcome to new members Black Owned Bos., the Boston Athenaeum and the Commonwealth Wine School. Please register HERE in advance for this meeting. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting. We look forward to seeing you there!
