“Remembering the Revolution”

This year marks the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. The American Revolution gave birth to a new nation and set of ideals that have been memorialized and reimagined ever since.

“Remembering the Revolution” will feature stories of those involved in the conflict, such as Benjamin Simpson, a local mason who participated in the Boston Tea Party and later served in the Continental Army, and Captain Jabez Lane of Buxton who fought in campaigns from Boston to New York. The exhibition will also examine some of the objects and events that later generations used to remember and redefine the Revolution.

Gallery Tours

Gallery tours will be offered at noon on Friday, July 24th and Friday, August 14th.
