For Michael Maler, the latest chapter started during the pandemic, specifically with the shuttering of Boston’s theaters, concert halls, and other performing arts venues. But as so often is the case when tragedy closes a door, he said a new window of opportunity also opened for him.

“If one subscribes to the ‘dark cloud-silver lining’ philosophy, the opportunity afforded to small and mid-sized cultural sites—which have often historically lingered in the shadows of their larger counterparts—came in the form of their ability to offer performance space for an arts-starved public,” said Maler, the past Metro-Boston Regional Site Administrator for Historic New England, as well as a Temple Street resident.
