About this event
"Living in a diverse city doesn't necessarily mean that you interact with a diverse population -- The Jar makes that possible." ~Courtland Townes III, Jar Convener
"Joy is inherent to The Jar. Come to a room that is unlike any other in Boston. There's this community that's growing and building every day, the art and artists who come through just continue to get more fabulous, what are you waiting for? It's time!" ~Gina Christo, Jar Convener
CONVENE
The Jar utilizes a Convener Model which invites you to actively build a diverse and vibrant community. As a Convener, you’ll purchase a Jar of tickets for $60 – that’s 6 tickets at $10 each. You’ll then invite:
- Your partner or other close friend
- 2 people you would normally experience culture with
- 2 people you wouldn’t normally experience culture with – people who may not look like you, pray like you, love like you, earn like you, etc. While these can be people you know – like an acquaintance, neighbor, or colleague – they are most importantly people you’d like to know better.
Together, the six of you gather to experience The Jar:
- 7:00PM Doors & Open Bar
- 7:30PM Comedy with Usama Siddiquee
- 8:30PM Dialogue & Dessert
