“We live in Boston and wanted a local venue that showed off the best of Boston. AFH is an amazing non-profit gallery that works with local teenagers to create art. LARGE, industrial space with concrete floors and a large garage door with a private courtyard/patio. The venue is in South Boston, blocks away from the Broadway T station with a nearby parking garage. Easy mass transit and driving location right off of 93 and 90.”
