On Tuesday, May 18th over 175 guests celebrated 826 Boston's newest student authors at our Spring Benefit. Our guests enjoyed spectacular views of Boston Harbor, live music, student readings, and conversations on writing with acclaimed authors Andre Dubus III, Julian Houston, Sue Miller, and poet Charles Coe.
Student authors from Greater Egleston High School and English High School proudly read their work from We Turned Back to See Where We Came From and Small Things Can Grow Tall. 826 Boston also awarded $7,000 in scholarships to five high school seniors from Boston Public Schools.
View two short films about each project here and check out photographs from the evening here.
