SUMMARY:Revolutionary Run
DESCRIPTION:In April 2026\, Patrick Atkinson\, a Scottish Rite Freemason from Delaware\, will lace up his running shoes and set out on a monumental journey\, running from Wilmington\, Delaware\, to Lexington\, Massachusetts. This isn’t just a physical test of endurance. It’s a fundraiser to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Scottish Rite Masonic Museum & Library\, and a tribute to the role many Freemasons played in the American Revolution\, 250 years ago. \nPatrick\, an experienced long-distance runner\, will run 333 miles over 8 days. His route will take him through many areas that witnessed historic events during the American Revolution. Patrick is undertaking this extraordinary journey\, running 50-60 miles a day\, to raise awareness about the museum\, to mark the events surrounding the founding of the United States and—most importantly—to connect with people\, history\, and Freemasons along the way. \nPatrick will end his journey by running through historic downtown Lexington and arriving at the Scottish Rite Masonic Museum & Library at 12 PM on April 11.

SUMMARY:Financing the American Revolution: Supplies\, Wages & Commerce
DESCRIPTION:Join us as Jeffrey M. Griffith and Hannah Farber\, in conversation with Ann Marsh Daly\, explore the financing of the American Revolution and the creation and implementation of economic systems in the new nation. During the war\, economies in Massachusetts and across the Atlantic were impacted by American boycotts\, loans\, and the cost of war efforts. Individuals like John Hancock were instrumental in supplying troops with materials and weapons that contributed to the Revolution’s success. Changes and connections forged during the Revolution began to lay foundations for the financial structures created afterwards\, whose influences still underpin the US economy. \nThis is a hybrid event. FREE for MHS Members. $10 per person fee (in person). No charge for virtual attendees or Card to Culture participants (EBT\, WIC\, and ConnectorCare). The in-person reception starts at 5:30 and the program will begin 6:00 PM. \nPlease visit here to register: https://www.masshist.org/events/financing-the-american-revolution
