SUMMARY:Concord’s Secret History (World Premiere)
DESCRIPTION:April 12\, 2025 8-10pm and April 14\, 2025 2:30-4:30pm\nThe Umbrella Arts Center Main Stage Theater 144 \nWorld premiere of new documentary about the history of slavery in the region surrounding Concord\, Massachusetts\, in co-production by Kogainon Films (USA) and GTVdocs (UK). The documentary reveals a long-suppressed secret\, set in Concord\, Massachusetts—the birthplace of the American Revolution\, where the first shots were fired on April 19\, 1775. While Concord is often celebrated for its role in the fight for freedom\, few are aware of the untold stories that extend beyond its borders.

After the screening\, the filmmakers and historians involved in the project will participate in a facilitated talk-back\, providing an opportunity for deeper engagement and discussion. \nPartners: Concord250\, Concord DEI\, The Umbrella Arts Center. View the trailer here. FREE \n\n		\n			\n				\n			\n			\n		 \n		\n			This event explores our region’s revolutionary past! Learn about Freedom’s Way 250 and discover the many ways the Heritage Area and its partners are commemorating and celebrating our nation’s semiquincentennial anniversary.
