As we prepare to celebrate America's 250th this Saturday, we'd like to take a moment to invite you to Hagaman on Tuesday, August 4th at 6pm in the DeMayo Room for a FREE presentation from Jen Busa of the Connecticut Museum of Culture and History: Discover the incredible history secrets behind how Connecticut, "The Provision State", helped win American independence!
The American Revolution was won with gunpowder, grit, and the extraordinary efforts of Connecticut's bravest. This illuminating presentation brings our state's revolutionary past back to life by showing how Connecticut farmers single-handedly fed, clothed, and equipped George Washington’s starving troops. Jen Busa will guide you through the high-stakes world of local spy networks smuggling secret letters through enemy lines, the terrifying reality of British coastal raids, and the bitter community drama between fierce patriots and hidden loyalists!
This engaging look at history is perfect for history buffs and curious kids alike, proving that the fight for American independence happened right in our own backyard! No registration is required for this free, all-ages event, so just grab your family, friends, and walk right into the DeMayo Room to discover Connecticut's revolutionary secrets.
For further questions about this event, please contact Chris, Hagaman Library's Reference Librarian, at either 203-468-3890 x 110 or [email protected].
