“Dear Boston: Messages From The Marathon Memorial” is an emotional rollercoaster of images and artifacts collected from the finish line memorials. The exhibit at the Boston Public Library extends through May 11 and contains hundredS of items from the make-shift memorials after last year’s tragic events on Boylston Street near the marathon finish line. Today marks the 118th Boston Marathon. Patrick Raycraft | praycraft@courant.com
