Prudential Center Shines Light on Boston-Area Organizations

A number of organizations will take part in flipping the lights at the top of the Prudential Tower in Boston through New Year's Eve.

The Prudential Center in Boston's Back Bay has been helping to spread awareness of local community organizations since the first of December, and will continue through month's end.

Each night of this year's "31 Nights of Light", the Prudential Tower is lit in a different color in support of that night's partner. 

The program was created to help community organizers gain key visibility during the holiday season, according to the Prudential Center's website. Participating organizations will be flipping the switch each night through New Year's Eve. Moreover, each group will host musical performances and speakers each night.
