I love the State House Steps idea. I also talked with a friend, who runs
the Regent Theater in Arlington, and he said I could have the the use of
the black box theater downstairs for $25.00 to do poetry readings of
meetings (could be weekly, monthly, quarterly) - it is on Medford St., on
the T's bus line w/good parking, if there is interest. it legally holds
120.
