Hard hats on! 👷‍♀️ We had the opportunity to get a sneak peek at The Platform, the new venue opening across the street from Glass House and operated by Global Arts Live.

We loved getting a behind-the-scenes look and learning more about what’s to come. Excited to welcome our new neighbors and see The Platform come to life!

Each quarter, The Briar Group sends employee volunteers to My Brother’s Keeper to help deliver groceries to our neighbors in need. Pictured here are recent volunteers from M.J. O’Connor’s in Westin and The Beth in Hingham. Thank you, friends!

🇮🇪 Say hello to a few more of our amazing J-1 students!

It’s been awesome having these students from Ireland spend the summer with us at The Briar Group. While they’re exploring Boston and checking destinations like Fenway Park, Harvard, Nashville, and beyond off their bucket lists, they’ve become such an important part of our team. ☘️✨

What a day at our 32nd Annual Briar Group Irish Open! ☘️⛳️ One of our favorite days of the year.

We couldn’t have asked for better weather, better vibes, or a better group of people to spend the day with-all while raising money for a great cause.

This annual golf tournament wouldn’t be possible without the incredible support of our loyal friends, sponsors, vendors, and volunteers who show up year after year to give back. Thank you for making this event so special.

We’re proud to have raised over $105,000 in support of the Boston Police Athletic League (PAL) and other local charities. PAL’s mission to build positive relationships between law enforcement and the community while guiding youth toward a successful future is one we’re honored to support. ✨

To everyone who golfed, sponsored, donated, volunteered, and supported this year’s tournament-thank you for helping make it all possible. 💚

Here’s to 32 years of golf, giving, and community. Already counting down to next year! 🍻
