SUMMARY:First Friday: Behind the scenes at the Hale House
DESCRIPTION:Join us for the “First Friday” of the month. Historic Beverly’s monthly program series exploring local history through engaging talks and presentations. \nThis month\, discover the long and fascinating history of the Rev. John Hale House and Farm. Built c. 1694\, the house remained in the hands of Hale’s descendants\, though not always bearing the Hale name\, until the late 1930’s. \nFollowing its purchase in 1937\, the property opened to the public later that same year\, beginning its life as a historic site. \nToday\, Historic Beverly has worked to restore the surrounding landscape to reflect what Hale descendants would have known in the nineteenth century. This program explores both the history of the house and the ongoing preservation efforts shaping its future. \nRegistration is mandatory\, admission is free\, donation appreciated. Join us for this monthly tradition of learning and discovery.

SUMMARY:Reading Frederick Douglass Together at Hale Farm
DESCRIPTION:Historic Beverly invites the community to participate in our annual Reading Frederick Douglass Together program\, a powerful public reading of Frederick Douglass’s landmark July 5\, 1852 speech\, “What\, to the Slave\, is the Fourth of July?” \nAs part of this statewide initiative led by Mass Humanities\, community members volunteer to read portions of Douglass’s speech aloud\, reflecting on its enduring call for freedom\, justice\, and equality. This year marks Historic Beverly’s fifth Reading Frederick Douglass event and coincides with Beverly’s 400th anniversary celebration\, making this year’s gathering especially meaningful. \nWe are honored to welcome renowned Frederick Douglass historian and interpreter Nathan Richardson\, who brings Douglass’s words and presence to life through his acclaimed first-person interpretation. Richardson’s powerful performances have inspired audiences nationwide and create a deeply moving connection to one of America’s most important voices. \nFollowing the reading\, guests are invited to stay for a special concert performance by the David Eure Duo. Known for blending jazz\, improvisation\, and storytelling\, the ensemble will close the morning with a dynamic musical celebration of community\, culture\, and reflection. \nHistoric Beverly is currently seeking volunteer readers from across the community to participate in this year’s program. Whether you are a returning participant or attending for the first time\, all are welcome to take part in this shared reading experience. To volunteer email: education@historicbeverly.net \nHistoric Beverly extends sincere thanks to Mass Humanities and the Mass Cultural Council for their generous support through the Reading Frederick Douglass Together grant program\, which helps make this event possible. Additional support is provided by the North Shore MA NAACP and Beantrust Coffeebar. \nLearn more about Nathan Richardson at www.scpublishing.com\nLearn more about David Eure at www.necmusic.edu/faculty/david-eure/
