SUMMARY:Remembering the Revolution
DESCRIPTION:How do we remember the American Revolution?\nIn honor of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence\, Heritage Museums & Gardens presents Remembering the Revolution\, a site-wide exhibition exploring what life was like for everyday New Englanders during America’s founding era.\nDrawing from Heritage’s collections\, the exhibition examines the experiences of Patriots\, Loyalists\, local Wampanoag soldiers\, pacifist Shaker communities\, and others whose stories are often overshadowed by famous battles and Founding Fathers.\nHighlights include silver crafted by Paul Revere\, nine military miniature regiments\, and a 24-square-foot diorama depicting the British surrender at the Battle of Yorktown. Throughout Heritage’s 100-acre campus\, visitors can also discover interpretive displays connecting the museum’s collections and landscapes to the Revolutionary period.\nIncluded with museum admission.

SUMMARY:Voices of a Revolution
DESCRIPTION:Visitors will step into a rural Massachusetts community and meet six Revolutionary-era residents—a printer\, housemaid\, lawyer\, shopkeeper\, tavern keeper\, and farmer’s wife—each navigating the growing conflict in their own way. To make the experience even more immersive\, guests will have an opportunity to learn about a specific person and build their own character\, allowing them to move through the Village as active participants in the unfolding story and decide whether it is in their best interest to fight for independence or remain loyal to The British Crown. Voices of a Revolution is produced in partnership with ClockJack Productions.

SUMMARY:Community Reading of the Declaration of Independence
DESCRIPTION:The Amherst Historical Society will be presenting a communal reading of the Declaration of Independence at noon on Saturday\, July 4th from the steps of the Amherst Town Hall.  The event will be marked by the ringing of church bells throughout the town at noon\, followed by a summoning of the community to Town Hall by the blowing of a conch shell.  Historically\, a conch shell was used to call the residents of Amherst to gather to conduct town business.  The Historical Society has several examples of conchs used by town officials over the years\, including the original dating back to the 18th century.  The conch to be used was purchased for the event and is not historic.    \nMembers of the Town Council will present a proclamation and after that\, Representative Mindy Domb will begin the reading with the Preamble.  The public is invited to join in following the opening statements\, particularly with the section that begins\, “We hold these truths…”   Individual readers from the community will be reading in turn the rest of the document.  The event will conclude with a non-denominational benediction from Father Valentine Nworah of the Newman Center and close with a musical offering.
