‘“The JMSH Private Hall Tour for Meyerhoff Britten members and higher on Monday, January 25 at 2 pm is cancelled. Donors will be contacted by email with further instructions.”
The BSO is not the only arts organization to suffer do to inclement weather. On Saturday the Broadway League announced the cancellation of all shows due to extreme snow (via Broadway World):
"As a result of the ban on travel in New York and suspension of public transportation by government authorities and additional safety precautions implemented due to severe weather, all Broadway matinee and evening performances on Saturday, January 23rd, will be cancelled. Charlotte St. Martin, President of The Broadway League, stated, 'Now that the snowstorm has arrived, I'd like to reiterate that the safety and security of theatregoers and employees is everyone's primary concern. As a result of the ban on travel in New York and the suspension of public transportation by government authorities and other safety precautions implemented on behalf of the weather, evening performances will be cancelled tonight, January 23rd. We expect normal operations to resume for tomorrow's Sunday matinees.'"
