The must-attend event of the year for all Agawam Historical Association members!
Following the election of officers & directors, a review of the past year and a preview of next, and the presentation of the Agawam Historical Association / Marilyn P. Curry Memorial Scholarship, talented actor Rita Parisi will present Women of ’76; her engaging depiction of patriot and loyalist women, both American and foreign, who witnessed the American Revolution firsthand and, in some cases, changed the course of it. Women such as Baroness von Riedesal, wife of a Hessian General and chronicler of life in colonial military camps; and Prudence Wright, Minutewoman and spycatcher; and others!
This event is free and open to the public.
This program is supported in part by a grant from the Agawam Cultural council, a local agency which is supported by the mass cultural council, a state agency.
