Join the Friends of the Robbins Library’s June program, a fun virtual program about a guidebook to take you off the beaten path in Boston.
Open to all, the event will take place on Zoom at 7 p.m. Wednesday, June 16.
Registration is required on Eventbrite or search “111 Places in Boston” for sign up.
Join authors Kim Windyka and Heather Kapplow for a virtual panel discussion about their guidebook, 111 Places in Boston That You Must Not Miss, which puts Boston front and center.
Faneuil Hall is fine and the duck boats are just dandy, but if you want to go beyond the Boston of brochures and get to the heart of this mysterious, charming old metropolis, you have to dig deep and be willing to get a little weird.
The guidebook with a twist takes you far off the beaten path — and the Freedom Trail — to explore a side of the city that’s offbeat, unexpected, and completely fascinating for visitors and locals alike. Whether you want to pay your respects at the memorial for a fictional character, sneak behind a vending machine to go shopping for sneakers, sip cocktails where hardened criminals sat behind bars or hang out with some life-sized puppets, you can do it all here … and before dinnertime to boot.
Throw on your Red Sox cap, hop on the T and uncover some secrets along the way.
