6:00pm-doors open-food/drinks

7:15pm-discussion
8:00-9:00pm-social hour

We’ve all asked the age ol’ question, “Why doesn’t the T stay open later?” Now you can find out why.

Come watch the Boston Under After Hours documentary about what happens after the T shuts down, and the MBTA employees who work 1:30am-5:00am to make the system run smoothly the following day. With current fare increases and service cuts pending, this question is even more relevant. Why not keep the T open longer for more revenue? What can you do to keep the T going? Get insight in to the inter-workings of the T, and the current MBTA’s financial situation and service plan.

Discussion with filmmakers, MBTA, and On The Move following the film. Stay for a social hour afterwards to meet and chat with filmmakers and the stars of the film. 

Popcorn and snacks provided and $2 Harpoon.
