Henry Longfellow believed that "art [was] the gift of God, and must be used unto his glory." Members of the Harvard Business School community are indeed blessed to live in one of the nation's culturally richest cities in terms art, culture and intellect. As the brutal winters of Cambridge approach, the artistic and cultural treasures within the Harvard vicinity will provide a refuge, comfort and inspiration. Following is a sample of the arts, musical, literary, theatrical, operatic, and intellectual events that will nourish one's thirst for the general arts and provide a break from HBS Case Studies.
