The City of Cambridge, in partnership with CultureHouse and the Cambridge Office for Tourism, is reopening the historic Kiosk in Harvard Square as the Cambridge KiOSK – a dynamic cultural incubator, community gathering space, and visitor information center. Join us for an opening day celebration featuring live music, refreshments, and a speaking program. The reimagined historic space will host a wide range of free programming – from poetry open mics and arts workshops to rotating historical exhibits and intimate live music. Offerings will span visual arts, literature, local history, and more, creating a welcoming space for residents and visitors alike.

Visitors will be among the first to step inside the KiOSK and explore its inaugural exhibit: a pop-up newsstand celebrating Cambridge’s rich print media history. The rotating exhibit will explore themes including the legacy of Out of Town News, the influence of radical newspapers, and the role of music and cultural publications in shaping Cambridge’s creative identity.
