Portuguese fest draws out varied Hub community

CAMBRIDGE – On a warm Thursday evening, both young and old Portuguese-Americans packed the Filarmónica de Santo António Cultural Center in East Cambridge as part of an effort to gather immigrants and their families.

"It's very important to bring people together," said Ângela Crespo the chapter co-leader of the Portuguese American Post-graduate Society. "With all the different generations here – that was the whole point of tonight's event."
