“Songs of the Revolution” presented by Diane Taraz
In celebration of the nation’s 250th birthday, we’ve invited back Diane Taraz to share songs of the American Revolution days. In 1776, New England was full of music. Songs helped speed the work in kitchens and workshops, soldiers marched to lively fife and drum tunes, youths sang melodies of romantic passion, mothers crooned lullabies, churches rang with hymns, and ballads carried the news of the day.
Folksinger and historian Diane Taraz will entertain us with songs that were enjoyed by both sides during the Revolution, accompanying herself on mountain dulcimer and an instrument similar to the English guitar. Don’t miss this musical treat!
at the Congregational Church, 330 King St, 7:30PM

Is the Baker-Sargent house on Robinson Road the oldest house in Littleton? An attic beam carved “Built in 1673 by SP” would seem to indicate this, but the truth is far more surprising. Learn who SP actually was, and whose hand carved this inscription in 1673, and for whom!
Friday’s Finds is a new addition to our website, highlighting recent discoveries around Littleton’s history.
