Free Fun Fridays at the Boston Harbor Island Alliance

The Highland Street Foundation’s Free Fun Fridays program will offer free admission to the Boston Harbor Island Alliance on Friday, August 24, 2012. This year, a record-breaking 50 venues are participating in Free Fun Fridays, with five cultural venues open free-of-charge one Friday for ten weeks throughout the summer. 

This is a free ferry ride to either (or both) of the two most popular Boston Harbor Islands – Georges Island (with historic Fort Warren and ranger-guided tours) and Spectacle Island (with a life-guard supervised beach and 5 miles of hiking trails).

Free tickets for the Harbor Islands Express Ferry will be distributed on a first come, first serve basis Tickets will be handed out for the earliest ferry, then the next, and so on, until all ferry seats for the day are distributed – last year, all tickets were distributed by 10:30 am.
