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.
