From April 11-20, 2023, “Wandering Boston’s Little Syria” was on display at the Massachusetts Historical Society. Like the MIT exhibit, it featured photographs, books, music, religious objects, and even an oud–on loan from families that trace their roots to Little Syria.

Ottoman Boston: Visualizing Little Syria” explored the history of the Little Syria neighborhood through physical artifacts. The exhibit was on display in the Reading Room at MIT’s Rotch Architecture and Planning Library from December 1, 2022-March 31, 2023.
