It is with the greatest happiness and gratitude to God that we invite you to the upcoming inauguration of the Islamic Society of Boston Cultural Center (ISBCC), Friday and Saturday June 26th to June 27th. The inauguration will mark the completion of Phase 1 of the 68,000 square foot mosque and cultural center, perhaps the largest on the east coast of America.
Join us and dine with congressman Keith Ellison, the first American Muslim elected to congress! Buy your tickets at the doors!
Boston is one of the cultural capitals of America, the home of much of America’s historical, religious, and academic legacy and it is entirely fitting that this nationally unique cultural landmark be added here, in this city of landmarks.
Details of the Inaugural Celebration:
Inaugural Prayer Breakfast with Major Interfaith, Muslim and Civic Leaders, Elected Officials.
Starts on Friday June 26th at 8:45 to 10:30am. It will take place at the Reggie Lewis Track & Athletic Center across from the new center at 1350 Tremont Street, Boston, MA.

Our guest speaker will be Dean William Graham, Head of the Harvard Divinity School.
