We may be bouncing between winter and spring weather here in Boston, but at BBR we are busy looking all the way toward June.
For the second year in a row, the Back Bay Ringers will be supporting a Boston area non-profit that supports the LGBTQ+ community.

We are so happy to be partnering with such a dedicated organization. To learn more about the Boston Living Center, visit their website at https://www.vpi.org/boston/.
