We will serve punch made from a period recipe and very light snacks. \nTickets will be $30* and all proceeds will go towards funding our upcoming “Stitching History Together” exhibit and dressmaking demonstration scheduled for July. \nAn original gown worn by Abigail Adams will come out of storage for this event\, but it will not be mounted due to its fragile state.

SUMMARY:Revolutionary Near Miss – How the Rev. War’s First Battle Could Have Occurred in Marblehead
DESCRIPTION:In this first of eleven FREE illustrated talks offered by the Marblehead 250 Committee and Marblehead’s Abbot Public Library in 2026\, the United States’ 250th year\, see and hear the fascinating story of how the first shots of the American Revolution were almost fired in Marblehead or Salem on a cold Sunday in February 1775\, when nearly 250 British soldiers “marched through the town” and on to Salem’s North Bridge\, instead of in Lexington and at Concord’s North Bridge less than two months later\, on April 19. That infamous ”first battle” could easily have happened here or in Salem\, with loss of Marblehead lives and more instead. And that near-miss episode could have made Marblehead and Salem instead of Lexington and Concord “Ground Zero” for the seven long years of war that followed. \nJudy Anderson is an independent social\, cultural\, and architectural historian who worked at the Marblehead Museum for 16 years\nas the organization’s first administrative director in 1994 and the only specified curator of the Jeremiah Lee Mansion from 2001-2010.
