Event Description

Wit & Word is a literary event in the dead of New England winter, designed to warm post-holiday hearts sans shopping or screens. Featuring five area writers sharing sharp satire, candid confessions, and true stories that explore mysteries of middle age and realities of modern adulting, the night offers humor with heart, insight, and perhaps a little cringe. You’ll leave laughing, thoughtfully entertained, and hopefully, slightly more fortified to make it to spring. Please register at concordlibrary.org. The Concord Free Public Library's programs are free to the public thanks to the generous support of the Friends of the Concord Free Public Library and the Concord Free Public Library Corporation.

    Henry David Thoreau Debuts in a Documentary

    HENRY DAVID THOREAU, a new, three-part, three-hour film examines the life and work of Concord’s 19th-century writer in the context of antebellum New England and the larger United States, as well as through the universal themes he focused on in his writings: an individual’s relationship to the state, how to live an authentic life, our connection to nature, and the impact of race on American life. Ultimately, HENRY DAVID THOREAU presents a portrait of a man both rooted in his time and speaking far beyond it. By placing his life and writings within the great moral struggles of the 19th century, the film underscores why Thoreau endures as a guide to the tensions and possibilities of American democracy—offering wisdom and provocation as the nation approaches its 250th anniversary.

    Discover the Battle Road

    The road to revolution continues. In September 1774, leaders in Suffolk County adopted a sweeping plan of resistance that called for boycotts, militia organization, and defiance of British authority. Learn more in "The Suffolk Resolves of 1774: A Comprehensive Plan of Defiance." Speaking of roads, spring is a great time to visit nearby towns. Map out your journey with "A Monumental Road Trip in the Freedom's Way National Heritage Area."
