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.
