Thursday night features a double-feature of history events, with the Golden Ball Tavern as the opening act for the Historical Society’s Slavery in a Colonial New England Town (see Owl earlier today). It’s going to be a rager–get your (free) tickets now.

Join the Golden Ball Tavern Museum on Zoom at 6:00pm EST on Thursday, November 18, as Serena Zabin, Ph.D., explores the Boston Massacre through the community and families of the British soldiers involved in this revolution-sparking event. Professor Zabin will discuss her book, The Boston Massacre: A Family History, with Golden Ball Tavern Museum Director of Education Hilary Miller during this special virtual program. Tickets are free, but any donation is welcome as the program supports the Golden Ball Tavern Museum, a non-profit educational institution.
