I think it would be challenging to explain to ON in what way prospective learners who can't yet ring and honestly may never come back are not "visitors," so would echo the suggestions to not mention Saturdays.

I think mentioning Wednesday and Friday nights is the safest option given
Old North’s recent guidance. More so, we may want to take discretion with
advertising ON practices if technically MIT student groups are not allowed
to meet under MIT’s COVId guidelines (admittedly, I’m not up-to-date on if
this has changed since the summer). Perhaps it raises philosophical
questions about advertising Advent Guild ringing at the MIT midway, but I
digress…

If they seem interested in the patterns compared to the idea of ringing
large bells, I think we can also direct them to Monday night online
ringing. I’m sorry I won’t be in town to help, but thank you for following
up with this!
