For Patriots, Great Wins Await in “The Blitz for Six”
Do you feel it? The entire city is rumbling. Football is coming. How can the Patriots top last season’s epic Super Bowl comeback? By going for a record-tying sixth championship victory. “The Blitz for Six” begins as the Pats host the Jacksonville Jaguars on Thursday, August 10, at the first of four preseason games. When preseason is through, the Patriots will officially kick-off the season at the NFL opener on Thursday, September 7, against the Kansas City Chiefs. Best of all, Mina at the Tower will be opening early – with games playing on every screen in The Club – all through the football season. Get up, get up! Let’s go Pats!

Art on the Rocks Series at Emerson
Let your creativity come to life with Emerson’s Art on the Rocks Series. These art classes offer step-by-step creative direction while you sip on cocktails and craft with friends. However, this isn’t your typical wine and painting outing – the series switches up the form of art and beverages each time, and is perfect for those looking to learn and drink something a bit more abstract.
| MERLOT & MOSAICS Use glass and tile to create unique mosaic designs as you sip on a big-bodied red. 6:30PM – 8:30PM | PROSECCO & PLEIN AIR Draw and paint scenes from outside of the Emerson building with a glass of bubbly. 6:30PM – 8:30PM |
Close, and Plenty of Cigars
