The art of spinning is best learned by the young, and Zoe Lawson has been practicing the craft of spinning by drop spindle and on a wheel since childhood. She shares her techniques while in 18th century garb while illuminating the various methods colonists used to produce their own textiles.

In the guise of itinerant musicians, Al Petty & Deirdre Sweeney perform popular 18th-century tunes such as “Mr. Isaac’s Maggot” and “Jack’s Health” on the penny whistle, flute, fife, & other instruments.

Diane Lent brings to life Harriet Revere, one of Paul Revere’s 16 children. Join her in reminiscing about her father’s dramatic life, the adventures of her many siblings, nieces, and nephews, and growing up in the historic North End. This event will be at 1:00, 1:45, and 2:30.

In 2021 R.P. Hale reimagined the panels Paul Revere created 250 years before for his illumination honoring the first anniversary of the Boston Massacre. Join Hale for a meet-the-artist event showcasing the artwork and his artistic process from research to concept to execution. (Rescheduled from March 2023!)
