SUMMARY:Being Thomas Jefferson: An Intimate History
DESCRIPTION:Historian Andrew Burstein discusses his new book\, Being Thomas Jefferson: An Intimate History (January 2026)\, the culmination of three decades of research and writing on Jefferson\, the Republic of Letters\, and questions of intimacy\, body and soul\, in an early American context. \nFifty years after Fawn Brodie shocked the history profession with her Freudian-tinged psychobiography of Jefferson\, Burstein revisits the serious questions Brodie posed about Jefferson’s sexual habits. Using greater restraint in the use of modern cognitive psychology―and only to the extent that it can be reasonably applied to the cultural conditions of the American founding era―Burstein emphasizes Jefferson’s Paris years (1784-89) and the pivotal relationship forged with the philosopher Marquis de Condorcet\, whose influence previous Jefferson scholars have largely overlooked. In closely examining his personal friendships and political alliances\, and his documented proneness for political vengeance\, Burstein’s tone aims to avoid exacerbating the love-hate relationship present-day Americans still have with the legacy of Thomas Jefferson.

SUMMARY:Tavern Talk: Henry Knox and his Noble Train of Artillery\, a 2-Part Series
DESCRIPTION:Experience the Tavern Tradition — history shared out loud among neighbors. \nSomerville Museum presents a 2-part Tavern Talk with Dan Breen on January 26th and February 9th at Aeronaut Brewing in Somerville. \nPart 1 (1/26): Ethan Allen\, Benedict Arnold and the Gibraltar of North America”\nPart 2 (2/9): “The Noble Train Arrives: Knox\, Washington and the End of the Siege.” \nAs we continue to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the Revolution\, it is time to celebrate the achievements of Henry Knox\, the 25-year old Boston bookseller who\, against considerable odds\, somehow oversaw the transport of 59 pieces of artillery from Fort Ticonderoga across the Hudson\, over the Berkshires and across the length of Massachusetts to the American army camped outside of Boston. But how did those cannons become available in the first place? \nIn the first installment of a two-part series\, we will tell the story of Ticonderoga and its improbable capture\, followed by the arrival of Knox six months later. Then we will begin the epic tale of the journey of the Noble Train\, following it down the ‘Queen of American Lakes'” towards “the River that Flows Both Ways.” \nIn the second part of our commemoration of Knox and the Noble Train\, we will follow the Ticonderoga cannon over the Berkshires\, across the Connecticut River and finally to Dorchester Heights\, where their emplacement would finally drive Lord Howe to abandon Boston. The siege was finally over. \n“Dan Breen’s descriptions are so vivid\, you can feel the wind on your face!”

Woodson.\nThe musical score of this work\, first retrieved and digitized from the Smithsonian American History Museum for this project\, is the basis for a modern adaptation of that composition.\nJoin us at 7:30pm on February 20\, 2026\, Ellington’s work will be presented in a concert along with several original compositions at the Richard and Nancy Donahue Family Academic Arts Center\, Middlesex Community College\, 240 Central Street in Lowell. \nBarzillai Lew\nBarzillai Lew was born a free Black person on November 5th\, 1743\, in Groton\, Massachusetts\, the son of Primus Lew and Margaret [Lew]. Like his father\, Barzillai became a renown fifer in the colonial regiment of Captain Thomas Farrington.\nAfter serving in the French and Indian War\, he purchased the freedom of Dinah Bowman (1744–1837) and married her in 1768. Dinah was a pianist who had been enslaved in Lexington. She may very well have been the first African-American woman pianist in American history.\nIn May of 1775\, Barzillai Lew enlisted in Captain John Ford’s Company\, the 27th Regiment\, out of Chelmsford. Lew\, along with about 3 dozen other ethnic Africans\, fought at the Battle of Bunker Hill on June 17\, 1775.\nWith wages earned from his military service\, the Lew family purchased a large tract of farmland in Dracut\, which is now part of Lowell. They built a house near Varnum Avenue and Zeal Road (named for Barzillai\,) now called Totman Road. After the war\, Lew returned to his farm in Pawtucketville\, where they raised 13 children\, the most famous being the abolitionist\, Lucy Lew. His great grandson is Harry ‘Bucky’ Lew\, the first African American Basketball player

SUMMARY:A Journey to Find an Ancestor and Honor His Faith in Diversity
DESCRIPTION:While researching her Revolutionary War ancestor\, General John Glover\, Jane Woolsey Gropp of Lexington learned about the Marbleheaders\, a group of fishermen and sailors from the coastal town of Marblehead who played a crucial role in several key military operations during the war. They were a diverse group\, including free African Americans and Native Americans\, and were the first integrated institution in America. \nGropp’s intention to have a painting depict General Glover\, who commanded the Marbleheaders\, led instead to a painting honoring both her ancestor\, a somewhat forgotten hero\, and the Black Patriots\, who were mostly unknown heroes of the American Revolution. \nIn recognition of Black History Month\, Gropp will describe her journey that led her to commission the painting called “An Appeal to Heaven\,” the interrelationships among the people in the painting (Washington\, one of his enslaved men\, others)\, and the Black Patriots who fought and secured a freedom that was not yet theirs. \nDoors open at 2 PM for a social period and refreshments\n2:15 PM – Brief Society announcements followed by the Guest Speaker

SUMMARY:ArtsThursdays: Revolutionary Teas
DESCRIPTION:Free In-Person Special Event\nArtsThursdays: Revolutionary Teas\nThursday\, February 26\, 5:00–9:00 pm RSVPs encouraged\nEnter at Peabody Museum of Archaeology & Ethnology\, 11 Divinity Avenue\, Cambridge \nJoin us for a free\, fun evening at the Peabody Museum of Archaeology & Ethnology—perfect for a date night\, a friends’ outing\, or meeting new people. \nThis special edition of ArtsThursdays explores the revolutionary era in the United States through one of its defining symbols and flashpoints: tea. \nFrom 6:00 to 7:00 pm\, tea historian Bruce Richardson will present the illustrated talk\, “Five Teas that Launched a Revolution.” The presentation will trace the history of five Chinese teas that were tossed into Boston Harbor in 1773—teas that came from the very same East India Company warehouses that supplied the tea caddies of fashionable homes in London and Bath. \nWhile the world knows how Britain’s love of tea has inspired countless “tea things\,” Richardson will remind us that residents of colonial Boston\, Philadelphia\, New York\, and Charleston shared a similar passion for fine furniture\, silver\, and porcelain devoted to their own tea rituals. Their daily cup became a ceremony—a gathering that helped spark a party\, a revolution\, and the birth of a nation. All this commotion over a simple cup of tea! \nDuring the evening\, visitors can:\nSample historic teas enjoyed in 1773 Boston.\nPurchase copies of A Social History of Tea (Benjamin Press\, 2013) by Bruce Richardson and participate in a book signing.\nEnter a free raffle to win museum gifts and membership.\nExplore the Peabody Museum galleries from 5:00 to 9:00 pm\, including Resetting the Table\, an exhibition about food\, power\, status\, and cultural identity. \nFree and open to the public. Let us know you are coming! RSVPs are encouraged\, but walk-in visitors are always welcome. Free event parking at the 52 Oxford Street Garage 4:30–9:30 pm. \nPresented by the Peabody Museum of Archaeology & Ethnology and the Harvard Museums of Science & Culture. \nArtsThursdays is a university-wide initiative supported by Harvard University Committee on the Arts. \nThis event is presented to mark the 250th Anniversary of the United States Declaration of Independence.

SUMMARY:Henry Knox’s Trek from Ticonderoga: Myths\, Realities\, and Results for Boston with J. L. Bell
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, February 26th 7:00 – 8:30 PM\nActon Town Hall\, 472 Main Street\, Room 204 \nIn early 1776\, the young Continental Army colonel Henry Knox moved dozens of heavy cannons and mortars from Lake Champlain to the siege lines around Boston; one of the most famous stories from the Revolutionary War. And like many famous stories\, it embodies a fair amount of legend and lore. This talk sorts out what we know\, what we only think we know\, and what we should know about how Knox brought this “noble train of artillery” that helped to make all of Massachusetts independent. \nJ. L. Bell maintains the Boston1775.net website\, offering daily helpings of history\, analysis\, and unabashed gossip about Revolutionary New England. He is the author of “The Road to Concord: How Four Stolen Cannon Ignited the Revolutionary War.” John is working on a new book about the difficult first year of the Continental artillery force. \nRemote Participation: You can watch live on YouTube at Acton TV http://tinyurl.com/Acton-TV. Recordings will be available at Acton TV https://actontv.org/ and on our website https://www.actonma.gov/250 where you’ll find all programming information and a link to our commemorative store.
