Gallery Tour of “Protest & Promise: The American Revolution in Lexington”

In 2025, the Scottish Rite Masonic Museum & Library is celebrating its 50th anniversary with special gallery talks, engaging lectures, and exhibitions drawn from our rich collections. Our gallery exhibition “Protest & Promise: The American Revolution in Lexington” examines how an entire community—women, men, black, white, young, old, enslaved, and free—helped spark a revolution.

Join museum staff on Saturday August 23 for a free gallery tour that focuses on women’s roles before, during, and after the Revolutionary War. This tour complements the reenactment of the 1769 Lexington spinning protest which will be held at the Women’s Liberty Monument from 10 AM – 3 PM.
