Founded in 2007 by violinist Betsy Hinkle, the Boston Public Quartet served until 2018 as a Resident Ensemble of musiConnects. In 2021 we relaunched as a stand-alone ensemble, and are excited to take on new adventures in programming and performances. Hinkle is joined by Violinist Grant Houston, Pianist Joy Cline Phinney, Violist Jason Amos, and Cellist Nicholas Johnson who make up the core membership of the ensemble.
We are proud to participate inMass Cultural Council's Card to Culture program in collaboration with the Department of Transitional Assistance, the Department of Public Health's WIC Nutrition Program, the Massachusetts Health Connector, and hundreds of organizations by making cultural programming accessible to those for whom cost is a participation barrier. EBT, WIC, and ConnectorCare cardholders receive free admission. See the complete list of participating organizations offering EBT, WIC, and ConnectorCare discounts.
