SUMMARY:Revolution & The Enlightenment Candlelight Concert (Plymouth)
DESCRIPTION:Hundreds of flickering candles will create a serene ambiance\, offering a magical\, immersive escape for the evening. America’s rise to independence coincided with Europe’s own awakening in an age of revolution. Mozart was a practicing Freemason and defended the principles of equality and that music should be accessible for all people. Although he depended on aristocratic support\, he was a staunch defender of the average citizen. His music took a turn from the Baroque era by featuring beautiful melodies with clean and less adorned lines. Johann Hummel was a student of Mozart and embraced the ideals of clarity\, structure\, elegant melodies and individual expression. We are pleased to bring these two beautiful works to historic Pilgrim Hall Museum.

SUMMARY:Meet John Adams – A Lively and Revolutionary Conversation with America’s Second President
DESCRIPTION:Annual Meeting of the Agawam Historical Association\nfeatured presentation: Meet John Adams: A Lively and Revolutionary Conversation with America’s Second President \nFollowing the election of officers & directors and a short business meeting\, George Baker will transport audience members to the Revolutionary era with his engaging and entertaining portrayal of President John Adams. Wearing historically accurate clothing and performing songs from the period\, Baker captures the Massachusetts native’s sharp wit\, principled leadership\, and deep commitment to the American experiment. \nBaker has performed his one-man show of President Adams throughout the country\, at venues such as the New York Historical Society\, Harry S. Truman Presidential Library\, Dwight D. Eisenhower Presidential Library\, and George H. W. Bush Presidential Library\, and was featured on National Public Radio’s weekend program\, Studio 360. \nA lawyer by profession\, Baker brings clarity and credibility to Adams’s ideas through a blend of history\, music\, and storytelling\, making Adams feel immediate and human\, rather than distant and monumental. The program concludes with time for thoughtful audience questions and conversation. \nThis event is free and open to the public. \nThis program is supported in part by a grant from the Agawam Cultural Council\, a local agency which is supported by the Mass Cultural Council\, a state agency.

SUMMARY:Revolution 250 in Yarmouth\, Massachusetts
DESCRIPTION:In celebration of the Semiquincentennial of our nation\, The Historical Society of Old Yarmouth is holding a series of commemorations\, lectures\, demonstrations & outdoor events. \nBeginning with the June 5th grand re-opening day/weekend of the Captain Bangs Hallet House & Museum\, there will be new exhibits\, including on the Revolutionary War\, highlighting Captain Joshua Gray commander of the local militia. Events will range from telling the stories of Yarmouth’s involvement in the American Revolution to showing how trades such as printing & glassmaking were performed in support of the war effort. Research by the Society indicates nearly 70% of Yarmouth males over the age of sixteen participated in the Revolution. A new monument commemorating these 445 participants will be dedicated with the celebration to include the State SAR Militia\, demonstrations & insights from characters in period dress performing in plays or talking graveside in the Ancient Cemetery about a veteran’s service. Many will take place on June 20\, 2026 as on this day in 1776\, the inhabitants of Yarmouth raised a Liberty Pole & declared a state of independence from Great Britain\, two weeks before the Declaration of Independence by the Continental Congress. More events will occur through July 4th & the summer\, concluding with a special marking of each grave of the Revolutionary War heroes of Yarmouth.
