Everstand Construction

While in Boston, be sure to visit the Bunker Hill Monument, one of America's oldest standing monuments. This impressive landmark was constructed in the mid 1800s to commemorate the first battle of the American Revolution. The monument is accompanied by an exhibit hall and a museum located across the street.

From the classics to contemporary theater entertainment, the Huntington Theatre Co. brings stories to life through the productions on its stage. Since the theater was founded in the 1980s, it has hosted performances of Prelude to a Kiss, Love's Labour's Lost, The Glass Menagerie, To Kill a Mockingbird, A Raisin in the Sun, The Importance of Being Earnest, and Arms and the Man.

If you'd rather have your nose stuck in a book than do anything else, then the Boston Book Festival is an event just for you – but you'll have to put down what you're reading to get there. The festival features live book readings, lectures and open discussions with professional authors, and of course, books! Food and fun are also a part of the event so count yourself in on the Boston Book Festival.
