Visitors to West Concord this spring will have a rare opportunity to step inside the world of fine guitar craftsmanship and musical innovation—years before the doors of the Guitar Museum of New England officially open.
The museum will host Hidden Gems, a special pop-up exhibition and event series in the months of April, May, and June at 129 Commonwealth Avenue in the heart of the West Concord Cultural District. The intimate display offers a preview of the remarkable instruments that will anchor the museum’s future permanent collection just down the street.
On June 5 and 6, the Concord Museum Guild of Volunteers welcomes community members to join the 37th Garden Tour. This beloved annual event invites ticket holders to tour six stunning private gardens throughout the Concord area, drawing inspiration from a variety of plantings, landscape designs, and approaches to outdoor living.
The events of April 19, 1775, when militia and British Regulars first clashed at Lexington and Concord, ignited the struggle that became the American Revolution. Each year, Concord and the surrounding communities honor that pivotal moment with ceremonies, living history, and commemorative programs that bring the story to life. From lantern-lit reflections and dawn salutes to immersive battle walks and historic house tours, we invite you to step into the places where the fight for liberty began and to remember the courage of those who stood their ground.
