Freedom Denied/Freedom Insisted Upon: Selected Documents & Life Stories from the Struggles for Racial and Gender Equality in Medford.

We will display material related to the Atlantic slave trade, Abolitionism, the struggle for Suffrage, Civil Rights and more, including Native American people and immigrants.

For an activity, we will have a multi-question “game show quiz” sheet to hand out about items in the museum exhibits titled: Can You Find . . . .?

We will be open on two Sundays 5/19 and 5/26 from 1pm to 4pm.

This program is offered by the Medford Historical Society & Museum as part of the Hidden Treasures Festival of Nature, Culture & History, an annual month-long celebration showcasing events and activities hosted by local partners celebrating the unique places, objects, and stories of the Freedom’s Way National Heritage Area.
