SUMMARY:AudaTours Stoneham Audio Tour: Timeless Tales of Historic Pride and Heritage
DESCRIPTION:In Stoneham\, the shadows of colonial fires and twentieth-century neon flicker side by side. Few realize how many secrets linger behind these iconic facades. \nThis self-guided audio tour leads straight through the city’s untold stories. Encounter corners and chapters that even locals walk past\, and let carefully crafted tales reveal what hides beneath the ordinary. \nWhy did a quiet night at the Bernard Cogan House erupt into controversy that changed a neighborhood? Who vanished beneath the glowing beacon of Stoneham’s eerily beautiful gas station? What explains the perfectly preserved pencil marks under the Warren Sweetser House staircase? \nMove between centuries as you cross storied main streets and hidden lanes. Each step peels back another layer of rebellion\, ambition\, and intrigue\, letting Stoneham rise up around you as never before. \nTap play and see how deep Stoneham’s shadows can stretch. The secrets are waiting.

SUMMARY:1776: Declaring Independence
DESCRIPTION:Featuring manuscripts\, artifacts\, and rarely seen treasures\, this exhibition captures a monumental moment in American history.  \nIn 1776\, people grappled with ideas of liberty\, loyalty\, and the role of government in society. Private letters\, intimate diaries\, and newspaper accounts reveal how the Declaration of Independence grew from draft to founding document. 1776: Declaring Independence spotlights handwritten copies of the Declaration by John Adams and Thomas Jefferson as well as multiple early printings\, including a rare Dunlap broadside. On and off the page\, we explore how it echoed across the commonwealth and around the world\, reshaping the colonists’ chances of launching a new nation. How did the Declaration change Americans’ quest for liberty\, then and now? We invite visitors to trace the Declaration’s complex legacy as a national beacon for celebration and protest. \nCheck here for closures and more admission information: https://www.masshist.org/visit/hours-and-admission

SUMMARY:AudaTours Stoneham Audio Tour: Timeless Tales of Historic Pride and Heritage
DESCRIPTION:In Stoneham\, the shadows of colonial fires and twentieth-century neon flicker side by side. Few realize how many secrets linger behind these iconic facades. \nThis self-guided audio tour leads straight through the city’s untold stories. Encounter corners and chapters that even locals walk past\, and let carefully crafted tales reveal what hides beneath the ordinary. \nWhy did a quiet night at the Bernard Cogan House erupt into controversy that changed a neighborhood? Who vanished beneath the glowing beacon of Stoneham’s eerily beautiful gas station? What explains the perfectly preserved pencil marks under the Warren Sweetser House staircase? \nMove between centuries as you cross storied main streets and hidden lanes. Each step peels back another layer of rebellion\, ambition\, and intrigue\, letting Stoneham rise up around you as never before. \nTap play and see how deep Stoneham’s shadows can stretch. The secrets are waiting.

SUMMARY:1776: Declaring Independence
DESCRIPTION:Featuring manuscripts\, artifacts\, and rarely seen treasures\, this exhibition captures a monumental moment in American history.  \nIn 1776\, people grappled with ideas of liberty\, loyalty\, and the role of government in society. Private letters\, intimate diaries\, and newspaper accounts reveal how the Declaration of Independence grew from draft to founding document. 1776: Declaring Independence spotlights handwritten copies of the Declaration by John Adams and Thomas Jefferson as well as multiple early printings\, including a rare Dunlap broadside. On and off the page\, we explore how it echoed across the commonwealth and around the world\, reshaping the colonists’ chances of launching a new nation. How did the Declaration change Americans’ quest for liberty\, then and now? We invite visitors to trace the Declaration’s complex legacy as a national beacon for celebration and protest. \nCheck here for closures and more admission information: https://www.masshist.org/visit/hours-and-admission

SUMMARY:AudaTours Stoneham Audio Tour: Timeless Tales of Historic Pride and Heritage
DESCRIPTION:In Stoneham\, the shadows of colonial fires and twentieth-century neon flicker side by side. Few realize how many secrets linger behind these iconic facades. \nThis self-guided audio tour leads straight through the city’s untold stories. Encounter corners and chapters that even locals walk past\, and let carefully crafted tales reveal what hides beneath the ordinary. \nWhy did a quiet night at the Bernard Cogan House erupt into controversy that changed a neighborhood? Who vanished beneath the glowing beacon of Stoneham’s eerily beautiful gas station? What explains the perfectly preserved pencil marks under the Warren Sweetser House staircase? \nMove between centuries as you cross storied main streets and hidden lanes. Each step peels back another layer of rebellion\, ambition\, and intrigue\, letting Stoneham rise up around you as never before. \nTap play and see how deep Stoneham’s shadows can stretch. The secrets are waiting.

SUMMARY:1776: Declaring Independence
DESCRIPTION:Featuring manuscripts\, artifacts\, and rarely seen treasures\, this exhibition captures a monumental moment in American history.  \nIn 1776\, people grappled with ideas of liberty\, loyalty\, and the role of government in society. Private letters\, intimate diaries\, and newspaper accounts reveal how the Declaration of Independence grew from draft to founding document. 1776: Declaring Independence spotlights handwritten copies of the Declaration by John Adams and Thomas Jefferson as well as multiple early printings\, including a rare Dunlap broadside. On and off the page\, we explore how it echoed across the commonwealth and around the world\, reshaping the colonists’ chances of launching a new nation. How did the Declaration change Americans’ quest for liberty\, then and now? We invite visitors to trace the Declaration’s complex legacy as a national beacon for celebration and protest. \nCheck here for closures and more admission information: https://www.masshist.org/visit/hours-and-admission
