Are there ever like meet up groups or anything? My husband and i are very curious but dont know a ton about the lifestyle and would like to make poly friends.
I do not know of any poly groups in Mass. But there are plenty of kink munches.... many kinky people are poly, so if you join Fetlife online you can find lists of meetups easily.
There is a Boston-area Poly group on Facebook that my partner and metamour are members of. There was one get-together a month or so ago that my metamour went to. I don't really have much more info than that.
There used to be a weekly polyboston social thingy at a place called diesel café in davis sq somerville. I just googled diesel café poly and got a bunch of hits, including a link to a livejournal page. nothing less than a year old and it doesn't say anything on the diesel café website. But you could start with those articles and i am sure if you called diesel they would probably be able to give you some useful information whether or not they still do that.
Hi-
I'm also in Mass and am new to poly. I was hoping for opportunities to meet people too! I've heard about the Diesel Cafe but I'm not sure if its still active. I'm on the south shore.
Glad to see so many local folks! Feel free to PM me if you'd ever like to talk more! Maybe any folks would like to grab a coffee sometime?
There's a monthly dinner at the Alewife Bertucci's on the 4th Monday of the month - that'd be next Monday on the 27th. It's listed on their calendar of events. I unfortunately have a conflict for Mondays.

Weekly poly-boston social at the Diesel in Davis Square, approximately 4pm-9pm (from whenever people happen to show up, 'til whenever they happen to leave).
Having joined polyboston.org, I think I've gotten some reminders of this meetup at the diesel cafe. Yes, it is apparently still going on. Every Tuesday.

We don't live in Massachusetts, but we are not very far from it either. We visit the state quite a bit and we are always interested in making new friends who are into poly or curious about being poly.

We had planned to come for Labor Day weekend, but we are going to a wedding, so we will arrange for a different time. We are friendly and out going and love meeting new people.
