SUMMARY:The American Revolution: A story of the War in 28 Paintings
DESCRIPTION:1776 was more than a turning point; it marked the birth of a new world order. A bold line was drawn as ordinary people made extraordinary decisions\, declaring independence from the most powerful empire on earth. Driven by youthful fire\, they believed in the promise of liberty more than they feared the cost of pursuing it.\nHistoric Beverly proudly presents The American Revolution: A story of the War in 28 Paintings\, a once-in-a-lifetime exhibition of artworks commissioned to illustrate Senator Henry Cabot Lodge Sr.’s landmark book.\nThese paintings are featured in Ken Burns’ upcoming documentary The American Revolution. The exhibit will be on display at the Cabot House from September 6\, 2025 to July 4\, 2026. Tickets are free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:A Journey to Find an Ancestor and Honor His Faith in Diversity
DESCRIPTION:While researching her Revolutionary War ancestor\, General John Glover\, Jane Woolsey Gropp of Lexington learned about the Marbleheaders\, a group of fishermen and sailors from the coastal town of Marblehead who played a crucial role in several key military operations during the war.  They were a diverse group\, including free African Americans and Native Americans\, and were the first integrated institution in America.  \nGropp’s intention to have a painting depict General Glover\, who commanded the Marbleheaders\, led instead to a painting honoring both her ancestor\, a somewhat forgotten hero\, and the Black Patriots\, who were mostly unknown heroes of the American Revolution.  \nIn recognition of Black History Month\, Gropp will describe her journey that led her to commission the painting called An Appeal to Heaven\, the interrelationships among the people in the painting (Washington\, one of his enslaved men\, others)\, and the Black Patriots who fought and secured a freedom that was not yet theirs. \nDoors open at 2 PM for a social period and refreshments\n2:15 PM – Brief Society announcements followed by the Guest Speaker
