SUMMARY:Lafayette Redux: Exploring the Man and the Mania
DESCRIPTION:How does it happen that Americans are still staging rituals of adulation for Lafayette\, cheering him on Broadway\, 190 years after his death? It’s entirely fitting\, as it turns out\, because if anyone is suitable for immortality\, it’s the Marquis. Come explore why the man may well have been even greater than his myth\, with one of the nation’s leading Lafayette aficionados\, Alan Hoffman. He’ll talk us through Lafayette’s triumphs and setbacks\, his astonishing accomplishments\, and the lessons his life holds for each one of us and for our society. \nDoors open at 6:30 for refreshments. \n$10 members\, $15 nonmembers

SUMMARY:Lexington Celebrates Walking Tour 2024
DESCRIPTION:Parades\, pageants and pandemonium have defined the many commemorations of the 1775 Battle of Lexington and the first shots of the War for Independence. Over the centuries\, thousands of people have descended upon the Battle Green to welcome Revolutionary War heroes like the Marquis de Lafayette on his tour of America in 1824. The anniversaries of the battle offered them a glimpse of President Grant in 1875 and a word from President Ford in 1975. On this land\, protestors have sat and monuments have been built to the fallen. Join a Lexington Historical Society educator as they illuminate 250 years of stories full of crowds\, chaos and celebrations! \nStarting and ending at Buckman Tavern\, this tour explores areas around the Lexington Battle Green. The tour is 1 hour long and covers about a 1/2 mile on flat ground. \n$10 members\, $15 nonmembers

SUMMARY:A New Revolution in Lexington
DESCRIPTION:In 2020\, 16.82% of Lexington’s population was Chinese\, which is proportionally the second-highest Chinese population of the 351 cities and towns in Massachusetts. Yet just 40 years ago\, Lexington had only 392 Chinese residents – and in 1890\, two. This presentation\, featuring research by Lexington High School student Sophia Zhang and live Q&A with local Chinese American panelists\, aims to discuss and explain the multi-phase evolution of the Lexington Chinese American community\, within broader historical contexts. This presentation will also highlight the civic contributions Chinese Americans have made to Lexington and the community’s place in the town’s ongoing demographic transformation. \nhttps://www.eventbrite.com/e/a-new-revolution-in-lexington-tickets-940429077687?aff=oddtdtcreator

SUMMARY:Declaring Independence Then & Now
DESCRIPTION:This dramatic presentation\, created by Freedom’s Way National Heritage Area\, aims to find out how our local towns read and reacted to the Declaration of Independence. Across the colonies\, and particularly in Massachusetts\, towns debated what freedom meant to them\, and grappled with the grievances aired in the official Declaration. What did the words in the final document mean to them? Costumed reenactors will bring life to the words of the past\, with narration by former State Representative Jay Kaufman. Rounding out our evening will be a performance by the Lexington Historical Society Colonial Singers. Some of our favorite tunes from the 18th century were highly political\, and many of them were also taken from popular English military music!

SUMMARY:Rick Beyer's Amazing Campaign for History's Hidden Heroes
DESCRIPTION:Nearly 20 years ago\, while living in Lexington\, author and filmmaker Rick Beyer learned the incredible story of the WWII deception units known as The Ghost Army. He soon launched a quest to tell the world about their exploits\, and to make sure what they did would never be forgotten. That led to the Ghost Army documentary (2013)\, the book (2015)\, and finally the Congressional Gold Medal (2024)\, the highest honor Congress can bestow. \nNow Rick returns to Lexington to recount his epic Ghost Army journey. It began on a winter’s day in a Lexington coffee shop\, and after innumerable twists and turns\, culminated in a ceremony at the U.S. Capitol presided over by the Speaker of the House. Rick will share insights\, anecdotes\, and behind-the-scenes adventures from this wild 20-year ride that so many people in Lexington took part in. All illustrated with rarely seen photos and footage. A story about what it really takes to see history preserved and remembered. \n“The Ghost Army” is one of those remarkable projects where the underlying story of bringing the history to light winds up nearly as compelling as the historical tale itself. Rick Beyer will share both those stories June 13. \nTickets: $10 members\, $15 nonmembers\, $5 veterans\, active duty military FREE. Tickets on EventBrite or at the door
