[Street] [Winter] Temporary Restraining Order Lifted. Please disseminate widely, brainstorm solutions

Brian Browne seemsalon at gmail.com
Thu Dec 8 10:23:05 EST 2011


The Museum of Fine Arts is free on Wednesday evenings on Huntington Ave on
Wednesdays after 6p. Very large spaces.

The ICA, Institute of Contemporary Art, a few blocks away from Dewey and on
the silver line is free on Thursdays after 6p. The water wall room.

Guise the gathering as a group art tour.

Stand close together.

It is so quiet there is NO NEED TO MIC CHECK. We could whisper.
