SUMMARY:"Earthworks: Evolution" Ceramics Biennial
DESCRIPTION:The Umbrella Arts Center of Concord\, MA presents its second Ceramics Biennial Exhibition\, “Earthworks: Evolution”\, a regional show celebrating the depth of history\, tradition\, and cultural expression in contemporary ceramics\, and the ways in which artists continue to expand the field through innovation and reinterpretation.  \nAdmission is free and the Allie Kussin Gallery is open to all.

SUMMARY:Patriots of Color Walking Tour with VisitConcord
DESCRIPTION:Between twenty and forty colonists who fought along the Battle Road on April 19\, 1775\, were of African descent or Indigenous people. Although excluded from required militia service prior to the war\, these individuals of color were the first of many to take up arms between 1775 and 1783. \nBy the end of the conflict\, an estimated 5\,500 African and Indigenous  men served on the colonial side. Unfortunately\, systemic racism and historical bias have erased or buried many records of Black and Indigenous people who played a prominent role in the founding of the United States. In this 90 minute walking tour we will examine the known history and stories of these Patriots of Color who fought for freedom locally both during the American Revolution and beyond. This tour examines the incredible stories of individuals who risked everything during their struggle for liberty\, equality\, and freedom for all.\nSign up at https://visitconcord.org/visit/walking-tours/

SUMMARY:American Contradictions: Enslavement and the American Revolution at The Old Manse
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a special Juneteenth offering of our American Contradictions tour! \nMany who fought for liberty and independence from Great Britain also enslaved other people – a contradiction that is at the heart of the American Revolution. At the Old Manse\, we see this contradiction embodied in the life of William Emerson\, “Patriot Preacher” and slave holder. We also see it deeply impacting the lives of Cate\, Phyllis\, and Frank\, three people enslaved by the Bliss-Emerson family. In this tour\, the stories of the Old Manse at the time of the American Revolution serve to tell a broader story of American freedom and enslavement. \nSpace is limited and advanced registration is recommended. Upon arrival\, please check in at the bookstore. It is recommended to arrive 10-15 minutes before your tour starts. \nThe historic house has several flights of steep stairs and is not wheelchair accessible. Please note\, there is no public restroom on site at the Old Manse. Restrooms are available nearby at the National Park and the Concord Visitor’s Center (subject to seasonal availability). Please plan accordingly. Parking is available in front of the museum in The Old Manse parking lot. \nCancellation Policy: In the event The Trustees cancels a program due to severe weather\, low enrollment\, or other circumstances\, we will notify registrants by email and issue a full refund or transfer to another scheduled program within two weeks of the cancellation. To cancel a reservation\, please contact the Old Manse 7 days prior to the start of the program to receive a full refund.

SUMMARY:1775 Walking Tour with VisitConcord
DESCRIPTION:Two hundred fifty years ago\, Minutemen fired the “shot heard ’round the world” at Concord’s North Bridge.

We’ll also visit the Wright Tavern to discover how the Massachusetts Provincial Congress met months before to plan their resistance to the British military threat. \nBook here: https://visitconcord.org/visit/walking-tours/
