THE ELLIS BOSTON ANTIQUES SHOW The Cyclorama at the Boston Center for the Arts October 20–23 ellisboston.com

Whether you’re a collector or simply hunting for that perfect piece, you’ll find endless offerings of antiques at The Ellis Boston Antiques Show, overtaking the Cyclorama at Boston’s Center for the Arts from October 20–23. Before these sumptuous treasures go on sale, a gala is held on October 20 to benefit the Ellis Memorial, Boston’s first settlement house, which has been caring for families, children and disabled adults since 1885.

More than 40 fabulous exhibitors from the United States and Europe bring their finest wares to this highly anticipated antiques event where collectors of all stripes are sure to find something truly striking. Refer to listing, page 12. —Paul Adler

DESTINATION DELICIOUS SMITH & WOLLENSKY ATLANTIC WHARF 290 Congress St. 617-778-2200 www.smithandwollensky.com

Those seeking stunning waterfront vistas and some of the finest steaks in the city need look no further than Smith & Wollensky’s new location at Boston’s Atlantic Wharf. Marking the ninth opening for this wellregarded steakhouse, Smith & Wollensky brings culinary class and dockside ambiance that is, as Executive Chef Matthew King noted, “second to none in quality.” Peter Niemitz designed the restaurant’s well-appointed interior while the menu boasts a number of old favorites along with a few superb new offerings.

At the restaurant’s grand opening, General Manager David Doyle remarked that, “they didn’t even think twice” about moving to the wharf as “locations like this just don’t come around too often.” With a beautiful view and some of the finest cuts in town, Smith & Wollensky truly brings culinary splendor to the waterfront. Refer to listing, page 52.

ANTHROPOCENE EXTINCTION Institute of Contemporary Art Through December 30, 2012

Brooklyn-based street artist Swoon has often used her concern for Mother Earth as the basis for her art. In Anthropocene Extinction, her new installation on the Sandra and Gerald Fineberg Art Wall at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Swoon expresses her alarm over man’s impact on the environment in grand fashion. Extending from high above the museum’s atrium next to its glass elevator and onto the wall in the ICA’s lobby, the piece starts with a temple-like bamboo structure suspended high above the floor. A chain of dozens of cut paper silhouettes of various animals emanates from this, ending at a giant mural of an aboriginal woman seated atop a frieze of Tibetan demon masks that seemingly engulf Swoon’s delicately crafted wildlife. This exhibit marks the beginning of the ICA’s 75th anniversay celebration, which continues throughout the fall with exhibits, performances and other activities. Refer to listing, page 15. —Scott Roberto

J

ust across the Charles River from Boston, Cambridge is a diverse and cosmopolitan city abounding with art, culture, fine dining and exceptional shopping.

Central Square is the social center for Cambridge, with great restaurants, bars and music venues such as the Middle East Cafe, T.T. the Bear’s Place and The Cantab Lounge.

Harvard Square is home to Harvard University’s sprawling campus, including its associated theaters and museums. In addition, visitors flock to the neighborhood for a diverse range of retail shops, restaurants, coffee shops, bars and clubs that offer something to satisfy every taste.

Kendall Square, home to MIT and many bio-tech firms, also hosts foreign and indie films at Kendall Square Cinema and boasts a growing number of eclectic nightspots.
