Lifelong Learning Lecture: Framingham Trailblazers
Guest speaker: Anna Tucker, Executive Director of the Framingham History Center
Learn about Framingham's history as the city marks the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution and its own 325th anniversary. This lecture examines the significant role Framingham played during periods of revolutionary change and how its residents, from the 18th century to today, have navigated and influenced broader social, political, and cultural transformations.
Drawing on archival sources, personal stories, and historical artifacts, hear about the contributions of local trailblazers who impacted both the city and the wider region. The lecture also addresses how the commemoration of these milestones informs our understanding of Framingham's evolving identity and place in American history, offering a nuanced perspective on the enduring influence of the past on contemporary community life.
