Join Red River Theatres, the New Hampshire Historical Society, and New Hampshire PBS for a special screening of Spirit of Service, an excerpt from THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION, a film by Ken Burns, Sarah Botstein, and David Schmidt. This selection of clips explores the enduring ideal of service in American life, and how the most diverse population of the 18th century came together and did their part to form a nation.
Following the screening, guests are invited to stay to learn 10 things you probably didn’t know about New Hampshire’s role in the American Revolution with Mary Adams from the New Hampshire Historical Society, followed by a brief, moderated discussion. This event offers an opportunity to connect national events with our own history right here in the Granite State.
