The Story Behind Paul Revere’s Ride — And More

01.25.26 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Paul Revere is an American icon, but how much does the story of the Midnight Ride hold up, and why?

This program will explore Revere and his famous ride, and offer some insights into other aspects of his life. Revere was a silversmith with several side jobs, an active member of the Freemasons, and a father to a large family, as well as a politically active Patriot in the American Revolution.

Tegan Kehoe, Research and Adult Program Director at the Paul Revere House in Boston, will present Revere and his legacy, including the history of the Paul Revere House itself.

2 PM – Social period
2:15 PM – Brief Society announcements followed by the program

This event is free and open to the public.

Space is limited to 100 attendees. One registration per household, please.
