The Harvard Allston Education Portal (Ed Portal) is a vibrant space that fosters learning and exploration for Allston-Brighton residents of all ages.
The Ed Portal was created to bring Harvard’s greatest strength, world class teaching and research, to the Allston-Brighton community. The Ed Portal is the Allston-Brighton community’s front door to Harvard’s educational, cultural, arts, and recreational resources. More than a physical space, the Ed Portal is a strong link between the Harvard community and Allston-Brighton community.
Please explore the site to learn more about the mentoring program, faculty speaker series, workforce collaborative program, and upcoming events. Contact the Ed Portal or come in for a visit during public hours on Monday-Thursday from 3-7 p.m. or when the Annex is open for public hours on Fridays from 3-7 p.m., Saturdays from 12-5 p.m., and Sundays from 1-5 p.m.
Learn more about free membership for Allston-Brighton residents and how to receive information on upcoming programs and events.
The Annex is a new flexible space that triples the size of the Ed Portal and builds upon the Ed Portal’s role as a place that fosters learning and exploration.
The Ed Portal hosts a variety of events that are free and open to the public. Events this March and April will include faculty talks, a yoga series, bicycle workshops, and more. Check out the events page for all the events.
