People of Concord Summer Lecture Series: “Such a dusky orb”: African American Presence and the Landscapes of Concord
2016 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm
July 19 @7:00 pm
Join Robbins House Advisor Dr. Lois Brown at the Concord Museum for a talk about the African American presence on and beyond the land of Concord. Dr. Brown moves between Concord’s African American histories, Thoreau’s New England writings, and N.C. Wyeth’s richly textured portraits of Concord life as she addresses matters of elusive inhabitants, visible communities, and idealized landscapes.
