Join Trustees curators Christie Jackson and Susan Hill Dolan for an illustrated lecture about ongoing conservation efforts on two important murals inside the Stevens-Coolidge House, North Andover.

Executed by Spanish artist Joseph Remidas in 1918, these colorful, scenic murals are unique features to the home’s interior decoration that speak to the era and were described by Mrs. Coolidge as being “exuberant and exotic.”

THIS SESSION HAS BEEN CANCELED.
Our next session will be June 18th.

The North Shore Amateur Astronomy Club comes to the Stevens Center for a astronomical history lecture followed by a telescope viewing.

Come learn how to spin your own yarn and then how to knit it into something!

This is as much a local knitting group as it is a class on spinning and a clatch on knitting tips and tricks, bring your project and sit with us.

If the weather is nice, we can knit on the porch. If the weather is bad, we can knit in the movie theater and screen something.

$10 requested donation for materials and instructor time.

The North Andover Farm Legacy Project, co-chaired by Anne Stork and Michael Smolak, is an endeavor to capture as much of the past of our venerable farming history before it is forgotten. By collecting oral histories and interviews, old photographs and documents, the project was originally designed to help preserve the history of our local farms.

Now, a series of documentaries is being produced that reflect on aspects of that history as well as the challenges local farmers have today in sustaining our farms and preserving our bucolic landscapes. The first documentary in the series has now been produced and will be premiering on the evening of Friday, June 13th at the NAHS Worden Theater.

Your invite includes a light reception starting at 6pm followed by the Farm Legacy documentary and a panel discussion. There is no cost for tickets but donations are welcome. This program has been a collaboration between the North Andover Historical Society and North Andover CAM.
