Boston has many venues such as the MFA, HFA, Brattle, Coolidge Corner, and local libraries offering movies which demand more from the audience than the typical Hollywood fare. We view the selected film and then go to a nearby restaurant to discuss. Sharing thoughts and ideas from the multiple perspectives gathered, we learn from each other and also have some fun. The goal of the group is to create a community for people who are interested in film and with that in mind, please RSVP with consid …

Come join us!  We attend movies, live theater, opera, concerts, and other events together, without going into Boston. We may eat together (inexpensively) before or after to discuss.

Welcome to Maha's Meetups! My name is Maha. I have quite a few interests and several passions which I enjoy sharing with others. Rather than creating a Meetup group for each one I figured I'd simply put them all in one place! (It's also cheaper!) The meetups here reflect my personal interests and so a suggestion to have a Boston Red Sox party is simply not going to happen! :) Current Maha Meetups: Maha Kirtan Gita Yoga Pickup Soccer Movie Night Detailed Descriptions: 1) Maha Kirtan Maha Kirt …

Once a month, Bostonians who enjoy reading aloud great literature will gather at one of city’s premier watering holes to do just that. (Dive bars won’t provide the q …
