Program Description
Event Details
The American Revolution began in New England. 250 years ago, the people who settled in what is now Massachusetts resisted attempts to deny them their rights as British citizens. What happened as a result of this struggle changed the world.
As part of Marlborough Revolution 250, come learn about the events that led to the American Revolution though books and documents collected by Marlborough residents.
In January you'll learn about the religion and culture of the first New England colonies and the Early Seeds of Discontent including the Dominion of New England and King Phillips War. There will be original books and documents on display that you might otherwise never be able to view. This 3-part series, presented in partnership with the Marlborough Historical Society and the Marlborough Historical Commission, will breakdown the history of our country from 1623-1775.
