Thanks to a generous partnership with ArtsEmerson, METCO Headquarters is excited to bring families together in Boston to build relationships and learn through the arts. Throughout the year, “METCO Presents” events give Boston and suburban community members access to relevant, powerful theater performances preceded by mingling and food and drink.

October’s show was the virtuosic one-woman show The Peculiar Patriot, written and performed by Liza Jessie Peterson. Parents, alumni, METCO Directors and supporters braved a Nor’easter to meet one another and share the story of a Brooklyn woman’s relationships, as experienced through visits to a prison in upstate New York.
