CAMBRIDGE – On a warm Thursday evening, both young and old Portuguese-Americans packed the Filarmónica de Santo António Cultural Center in East Cambridge as part of an effort to gather immigrants and their families.
"It's very important to bring people together," said Ângela Crespo the chapter co-leader of the Portuguese American Post-graduate Society. "With all the different generations here – that was the whole point of tonight's event."
CAMBRIDGE — Even for non-students, living near a world-famous college has its perks. In the last few months alone, I've sat front row at a free lecture by Pulitzer Prize-winning author, Marilynne Robinson, had the rare opportunity to visit the storerooms below the Harvard Semitic Museum, and see a play at the A.R.T. that is now headed to Broadway.
