Joel Myerson Annual Lecture Presented by Professor Laura Dassow Walls

10/11/25 6:30 pm EDT
Concord Free Public Library- Goodwin Forum Joel Myerson Annual Lecture Presented by Professor Laura Dassow Walls
129 Main Street
Concord, MA
United States
Contact: Anke Voss

Joint the Concord Free Public Library Corporation for the annual Joel Myerson Lecture: "Stepping Out of Time: Thoreau, Lopez, and the Question of Transcendentalism Today," presented by Prof. Laura Dassow Walls. "Is this who we are?" It's the question of the day, but generations ago the Transcendentalists asked it as well, as they confronted an America founded on the promise of freedom but mired in the economics of slavery. Their legacy to us is paradoxical: they offer a vision transcending worldly affairs, even as they demand we attend to the burning world.

Family Tree: A Reckoning

9/29/25 7:00 pm EDT
Concord Museum Family Tree: A Reckoning
53 Cambridge Turnpike
Concord, MA
United States
Contact: Emily Watkins

A few years ago, historian Elizabeth Herbin-Triant uncovered a long-hidden family secret: her family tree included one of Providence’s most prolific slave traders, Cyprian Sterry. Her research into Sterry’s life—marked by great wealth, a role at Brown University, and eventual ruin—led her to explore both her white and African American lineage. In Family Tree: A Reckoning, Herbin-Triant examines how families forget painful histories and asks: What do we gain—as individuals and as a nation—from confronting the full truth of our past?

    Tokens of Compliment and Love: 19th Century Concord Celebrates the Holidays

    When November rolls around each year many Americans begin to think about the upcoming holidays. Traditional family recipes are dusted off for Thanksgiving as relatives and friends are invited to share the feast. Almost as soon as dinner is over, thoughts turn to Christmas as decorations, presents, and parties become the center of attention. Many of our holiday traditions date back to the 19th century, and modern Americans would easily recognize their ancestor’s Thanksgiving and Christmas celebrations.
