Bad Girrls Studios was a popular Boston gallery and performance space from 1994 to 2006 initially located at 59 Amory Street and later moved to 209 Green Street in Jamaica Plain. Founded by School of the Museum of Fine Arts student Jessica Brand, the artist-run studio hosted numerous artistic and community events. Bad Girrls Studios operated under the slogan "Art is Not A Luxury." Bad Girrls Studios supported female artists in particular, and art that addressed the politics of sexuality and pushed boundaries of sexual orientation and gender identity. Bad Girrls Studios and Eventworks co-sponsored a 1999 production held at Massachusetts College of Art & Design featuring Karen Finley, an American performance artist, musician and poet famous for her works confronting the degradation of women and sexual violence. Opening acts for Karen Finley's performance "Shut up and Love me" included movement artist Emily Dotton and female musical duo Bitch and Animal. Other noteworthy events and exhibits included "Naughty Girrls Nite @ Bad Girrls Studios", produced by studio member Rebecca Goldberg, which drew over 50 women artists and performers from New York and New England; "Love, Sex and Disappointment", an annual Valentine's Day spoken word event; and the "Post-Apocalyptic Carnival" an audience immersed installation performance series representing the art, culture and food of an imaginary future world re-emerging after an apocalyptic event. Several of the studio members were part of the Art School Cheerleaders troop. This performance art group, which began at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, used Cheerleading as a medium for satirical commentary about the art world and to advocate for arts funding. Bad Girrls Studios hosted workshops and organized community gatherings to discuss the arts. Inspired by Jessica Brand's participation in the National Association of Artists' Organizations' (NAAO) "Co-Generate Project" (1999-2000), a think tank style leadership and development research initiative for arts professionals under the age of thirty (funded by the National Endowment for the Arts & Rockefeller Foundation), Bad Girrls Studios hosted a gathering of emerging Boston-based arts professionals and organizers working in dance, writing, theatre, music and visual art. The group engaged in dialogue and documented their perspectives of art's relationship to current social concerns, the 'alternative arts' model, empowering artist's access to visibility, and the future of art aesthetics. In 1999, the studio opened its doors to local Boston youth as part of an after-school arts drop-in center in which children engaged in imaginative drawing and painting. Jessica Brand derived her inspiration to establish the non-profit artist run gallery from the passion and work produced by her aunt Alida Walsh (1933-2000), a New York City artist, educator and activist who worked in film, sculpture, and multi-media most active in the 1960s and 1970s. Bad Girrls Studios was also influenced by an important performance art space in Boston during that time, Mobius Artists Group, that brought cutting-edge performance artists to Boston through an international exchange program. Mobius had been founded by another member of the School of the Museum of Fine Arts community, instructor Marilyn Arsem. Some notable artists as well as studio members working in visual, media & performance art included Justin Lieberman, Dana Moser, Jeff Warmouth, Yoriko Shiraishi, Joan Pamboukes, Sister Spit, Jake the Puppet Master, Duncan Wilder Johnson, Dame Darcey and the Cha Cha Caberet. Bad Girrls Studios invited touring and local musical acts to produce events of musical genres ranging from jazz, opera, sound art, alternative rock, blue-grass, roots, mamba, punk rock and hardcore. Some notable musicians that performed at Bad Girrls Studios include: Saturnalia String Trio, Daniel Carter, Nmperign, Miracle Orchestra, Mamashoe, Babaloo, Marc Chillemi, Jossie Perez, Kaffe Mathews, Bonfire Madigan, Jessica Ryan, Mr. Airplane Man, Lars Vegas and Lightning Bolt.

The Loring–Greenough House is the last surviving 18th century residence in Sumner Hill, a historic section of Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts, a neighborhood of Boston. It is located at 12 South Street on Monument Square at the edge of Sumner Hill. It is situated on the border of two National Historic Districts (Sumner Hill and Monument Square). This mid-Georgian mansion was built as a country residence and farmstead in 1760 for wealthy British naval officer Commodore Joshua Loring on the original site of John Polley's estate established in the 1650s. Originally, the Loring–Greenough house was situated on a 60-acre (240,000 m2) estate. Loring, a Loyalist prior to the American Revolution, abandoned the house in 1774, just prior to the conflict, and he fled from Boston in 1776. The house was confiscated by colonial forces and in 1776 served as a headquarters for General Nathanael Greene and, soon after, a hospital for Continental Army soldiers following the Battle of Bunker Hill. In 1780, the house was sold to Isaac Sears, the rebel leader from New York, and was then purchased in 1784 by Ann Doane, a rich widow, who soon after married David Stoddard Greenough. General William Hyslop Sumner married the widow of David Stoddard Greenough II (Maria Doane Greenough) in 1836 and by the late 1850s the process to subdivide the estate and farmland had begun. The Greenough descendants lived here for five generations until 1924. At that time the Jamaica Plain Tuesday Club (until 1993 a ladies'-only club and today a community group) purchased the house, along with almost two acres of landscaped grounds, to preserve it and save it from development. The Loring–Greenough House is a very well preserved structure of almost 4,500 square feet (420 m2), on property that includes sweeping lawns, historic flower beds, handsome trees, and the two-and-one-half-story house itself. The property is fenced and gated; the public is invited to enjoy the grounds during daylight hours, and to attend events inside and outside the House throughout the year. The Tuesday Club has been careful to preserve the house and grounds over many decades. The most recent restoration occurred with a $350,000 grant and included painting and other repairs. The Loring–Greenough property is still owned and operated by the Tuesday Club, which offers tours on Sundays and other programming and events throughout the year. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and was designated both a Massachusetts Landmark and a Boston Landmark by the Boston Landmarks Commission in 1999.

The Haffenreffer Brewery, established in 1870, was a former brewer in Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts. The first Haffenreffer bottles were plate mold bottles and were produced by Karl Hutter of New York and had the traditional lightning stop tops. According to Haffenreffer company records later in 1876 the Haffenreffer Brewery contracted with Dean Foster and Company of Boston to aid in the production of bottles for the brewery and the growing demand. Starting in 1893, all Haffenreffer bottles were produced with Karl Hutter stoppers. Haffenreffer Private Stock, a legacy of the original Haffenreffer & Co. product line, is a brand of malt liquor that ceased production in 2013. It had several nicknames: "The Green Monster", (referring to the left field wall at Fenway Park), "Haffenwrecker" and "The Green Death" all due to relatively high alcohol content. It was notable due to the Rebus puzzles under the bottle cap and due to the label recommendation of consuming it "on the rocks" or over ice.
