Written by Mike Spock
We began to get a fair amount of national publicity while we were still in Jamaica Plain.
Beyond the Boston syndicated Bozo Show, it included appearances on Dick Cavett, CBS Morning News, and Dinah Shore.
After the move to the waterfront there were articles in professional journals, national magazines, local press and planning reports. Below are links to a sampling of articles that appeared after the move and later and are now available in the Archive:
