Movies at the Meeting House: Banned Books on the Big Screen.

Join us for the first annual “Movies at the Meeting House” series. During 2015, Old South Meeting House will be showing three films based on books that were banned in various locations throughout the US, including Boston. Free speech is a key mission at Old South Meeting House and the development of this policy is deeply rooted in the Watch and Ward’s censorship of Boston. In honor of our literary past, we have chosen to celebrate works that had once been silenced for their controversial content in our first ‘Movies at the Meeting House’ series. Grab a friend and come enjoy the historic interior of Old South Meeting House like never before!
