Hi!
Are you attending IALLT 2007 at Tufts in June?
I thought I'd share news about some of the exciting events happening in
Boston during the month so that you can get a full taste of our fair
city (Thanks, Click and Clack.)
These links will show you a comprehensive listing of events and
attractions. Make sure you have time to extend your stay in Boston for a
few extra days to really get to know it.

And be sure to make time for the terrific Edward Hopper exhibit at the
Museum of Fine Arts:
EDWARD HOPPER RETROSPECTIVE
EARLY SUNDAY MORNING
A touring retrospective of EDWARD HOPPER's six-decade career is at the
Museum of Fine Arts, and it includes his best-known piece, Nighthawks, a
color-drunk portrait of patrons at a late-night diner caught in a moment
that suggests poignant loneliness. This feeling, along with urban
architecture and a particular fascination with New York City (Hopper
lived in Greenwich Village for more than 50 years), is among the
recurring themes in the artist's realist paintings, watercolors, and
prints. See the work John Updike described as "calm, silent, stoic,
luminous, classic" at the MFA, 465 Huntington Ave, Boston | May 6-August
19 | 617.267.9300.
