SUMMARY:Townsend Celebrates America’s 250th Birthday
DESCRIPTION:Townsend has always been a community that honors its past while looking toward the future\, and now we have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to celebrate both. As our nation marks America’s 250th birthday\, Townsend has been hosting a series of events that will lead up to a grand finale: a 250th Anniversary Parade and Old Home Day Celebration on Saturday\, June 20\, 2026.  This date is special because on June 20\, 1776\, Townsend voted to support our country’s independence. \nThis will be more than just a parade. It will be a hometown celebration of who we are\, where we’ve come from\, and the people who make this community strong. The parade will start from Scales Lane at 11:00 a.m.\, travel down Main Street\, and end at the Town Common\, where the Old Home Day festivities will continue with games\, local food\, and displays such as antique cars.

SUMMARY:NO RECOMBINATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION
DESCRIPTION:On a hot summer evening in 1976\, the Cambridge City Council faced a packed hearing room—and a decision that would echo across the globe. \nAt the center of it all stood Mayor Al Vellucci: sharp-tongued\, fearless\, and ready to take on science itself. The issue? A new biohazard lab designed for groundbreaking recombinant DNA research—celebrated by some as the future of science\, feared by others as the birthplace of “Frankenstein bacteria.” Nobel Prize–winning scientists\, passionate citizens\, politicians\, and the global press all converged on Cambridge to confront one explosive question: Who gets to decide the boundaries of scientific discovery? \nFifty years later\, step back in time with an immersive theatrical experience staged in the very same Cambridge City Hall hearing room where this conversation took place. Relive the tension\, the debate\, and the moment that turned local politics into a worldwide reckoning and that formed the Kendall Square that we know today. \nStay after the show to engage in thought-provoking conversation about the legacy of the hearing\, the power of public oversight\, and the future of community-driven science. \nNo Recombination Without Representation is a partnership between the MIT Museum\, Central Square Theater\, and the City of Cambridge. Performances will occur at Sullivan Chamber in Cambridge City Hall. All shows are free and open to the public. \nThis production was made possible through the generous contributions of MIT Museum supporters Phil and Ann Sharp and MIT’s Department of Science\, Technology\, and Society. This program is part of the MIT Museum’s year-long exploration of TIME and is part of the Massachusetts 250 activities celebrating the many “firsts” and innovations created in our state through the last 250 years.

SUMMARY:MA250 Film Screening: 1776 at the Adams Theater
DESCRIPTION:Our nation’s fathers harmonize their way through the founding of America in this musical adapted from a popular Broadway show. \nRepresentatives from the 13 colonies gather in Philadelphia with the aim of establishing a set of governmental rules for the burgeoning United States. Benjamin Franklin (Howard da Silva) and John Adams (William Daniels) charge Thomas Jefferson (Ken Howard) with the work of writing a statement announcing the new country’s emancipation from British rule. \n1776 earned a Golden Globe nomination for Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy and an Academy Award nomination for Best Cinematography. It was named one of the Top Ten Films of 1972 by the National Board of Review. \nA local historian will speak briefly before the film to lay the historical groundwork for the events depicted in 1776. \nReserve your seat here: https://ci.ovationtix.com/36681/production/1268826?performanceId=11782337 \nAdmission is free.
