WBUR's "On Point" Live With Tom Ashbrook & Mark Bittman (Paramount Center)

Join WBUR at the Paramount Center for this year’s edition of a unique, behind-the-scenes WBUR experience: a live production of "On Point" with Tom Ashbrook, Thursday, June 6 at 7 p.m. This year Tom will be speaking with one of his favorite guests: best-selling author and New York Times columnist Mark Bittman. The show will be taped and aired on WBUR and NPR stations across the country on Friday, June 7.

This live event, which usually sells out quickly, features the option to attend an elegant VIP reception in the Paramount’s Black Box Theatre before the show at 5:30 p.m. It’s also your chance to meet Mark, Tom and the rest of the "On Point" staff in person at this intimate and private affair while enjoying delectable dishes prepared by Executive Chef, Chris Douglass of Ashmont Grill and Tavolo and Chef/Owner, Joanne Chang of Myers and Chang and Flour.

Copies of Mark and Joanne’s books will be available for sale at the event and there will be a book signing after the program.
