SUMMARY:After-hours Special Program: Explore the Siege of Boston at the Paul Revere House
DESCRIPTION:After his midnight ride\, Paul Revere couldn’t return to Boston. What became of his family as patriot forces besieged the city\, trying to expel the British troops? In this program\, you’ll look at the experiences of Revere’s daughter Sarah\, helping her mother pack to flee the city\, and his son Paul Jr.\, who was left behind to guard the house against marauding soldiers. The event is partly an after-hours tour with a look at historic documents\, partly a field trip for adults\, and partly an opportunity for discussion about how the American Revolution resonates through time. \nWe are proud to offer this program as a part of Civic Season\, a nationwide project to learn about the past and level up civic skills in the period between Juneteenth and July 4. See thecivicseason.com for more information. \nWhile this event is FREE for registered attendees\, donations made in person or via our website are much appreciated! \nRegister here!

SUMMARY:Lace Making Demonstration
DESCRIPTION:Throughout the 18th century\, Ipswich Massachusetts was the largest commercial producer of lace on the North American continent. Continental production became even more important during the years leading up to the American Revolution when provincial citizens began boycotting imported English goods. Lace of all types from simple tapes to lavish and expensive silk trims were made by the women of Ipswich. Lacemakers Rebecca Audette and Susan Thomson will demonstrate the tools\, techniques\, patterns\, and history specific to Ipswich bobbin lace from Massachusetts during the fourth-quarter of the 18th century.

SUMMARY:"Lost and Legendary Riders" Lecture with JL Bell
DESCRIPTION:Beyond Paul Revere and his companions\, Americans have passed along stories of other notable riders on April 19\, 1775. Historian J. L. Bell investigates the facts and fiction behind such figures as Hezekiah Wyman\, the dreaded “White Horseman;” Abel Benson and Abigail Smith\, children said to have helped raise the alarm in Middlesex County; and Israel Bissell\, the post rider credited with carrying news of the fight all the way to Philadelphia. \nJ. L. Bell is the author of The Road to Concord: How Four Stolen Cannon Ignited the Revolutionary War and many articles about Massachusetts in the 1760s and 1770s. He maintains the Boston 1775 blog\, offering daily updates of history\, analysis\, and unabashed gossip about Revolutionary New England. \nThis lecture is presented as a part of our 2025 Lowell Lecture series\, “Whose Midnight Ride? Reflections on the 250th Anniversary of the Famous Ride.” On April 18\, 1775\, Paul Revere and William Dawes set out from Boston with information to convey to key Patriot leaders and to local Patriot militiamen. The story of the “Midnight Ride\,” on the eve of the Revolutionary War\, has been told and retold over the past two and a half centuries\, both as a historical event and as a national legend. The 2025 Lowell Lecture Series will share perspectives on the events of April 18\, the various participants\, and on what it means to people looking back on the ride today. \nLectures take place on Tuesdays\, September 16 and 30 and October 21 and 28 at 6:30-7:45 pm. Lectures are free to the public and can be watched online or in person at Smith Commons (5th floor)\, Sargent Hall\, Suffolk University\, 120 Tremont Street. The lectures will be recorded and available after the fact. \nPresented in partnership with GBH\, the Suffolk University History Department\, Old North Illuminated\, Lexington History Museums\, Evanston History Center at the Charles Gates Dawes House (Evanston\, IL)\, and Made by Us\, with funding from the Lowell Institute. \nThe in-person location is fully wheelchair accessible and has accessible restrooms. Seating is in free-standing chairs which may be moved. The live-stream and recording will have auto-generated closed captions only. Please contact the Paul Revere House with any questions about accessibility.

SUMMARY:“William Dawes’ Midnight Ride”  with William Dawes Schulz
DESCRIPTION:While Longfellow cast Paul Revere as a lone hero in his 1860 poem “Paul Revere’s Ride\,” history lovers have stood up for the other rider who carried news from Boston that night\, William Dawes\, since at least the 1890s. This talk will explore the life and the Midnight Ride of William Dawes. \nBill Schulz is a former cable news correspondent/co-host\, a totally licensed NYC Tour Guide\, and longtime contributor for publications including the New York Times\, New York magazine\, The Daily Beast\, Maxim\, New York Daily News\, and Reader’s Digest. Schulz is also the 7th great-grandson of the Patriot William Dawes. In his words\, “Truly\, generating publicity for his long-forgotten ancestor/midnight-rider is the ONLY hobby this bitter journalist has.”  \nThis lecture is presented as a part of our 2025 Lowell Lecture series\, “Whose Midnight Ride? Reflections on the 250th Anniversary of the Famous Ride.” On April 18\, 1775\, Paul Revere and William Dawes set out from Boston with information to convey to key Patriot leaders and to local Patriot militiamen.

SUMMARY:“Within the compass of good citizens” Paul Revere’s Masonic Journey
DESCRIPTION:Steven C. Bullock\, Professor of History at Worcester Polytechnic Institute\, will give an in-person lecture at the Scottish Rite Masonic Museum & Library on Paul Revere and Freemasonry which will also be live streamed by local community access partner LexMedia. A livestream of the talk can be viewed here\, and a recording will be available afterwards. The museum doors will open at 5\, so visitors will have the opportunity to tour the galleries before the talk. \nFrom the son of an immigrant to speaking beside the governor on Beacon Hill\, Paul Revere traveled far in his extraordinary life. His membership in the Freemasons played an important role in that journey. This talk will consider how the fraternal order fit into Revere’s life—and into the development of Boston and the new nation of which they were a part.
