Also: 17th century reenactors, maypole dancing, mead making demonstrations (at 1:30 and 2:45), South County Spinners, vendors, children’s games and crafts, yard sale featuring reproduction colonial cookware, earthenware, and drinking vessels, tours of the castle, and more!
**An all day seminar is in the works for September which will also feature Charlotte’s new book and other speakers. The day will be based on Roger Williams and the early New England colonies. The seminar will include talks and cultural performances by indigenous scholars, and artists. Keep your eye out for more information about the seminar!
