This event was canceled.  Please join us next year for our annual Patriots’ Day and April Vacation Week programming.

After the Patriots’ Day parade, stop by the Museum to enjoy patriotic activities for families, art-making, Longfellow-inspired poetry writing, and explore the Museum’s outstanding collection of objects that were witness to the events of April 1775, including the famous “one, if by land, two, if by sea” lantern. Meet a silversmith and hammer your own copper bowl to bring home.

Patriots’ Day is made possible in part with the generous support of the Massachusetts Society of the Cincinnati. Activities ongoing throughout the day.
