Please join us this Friday, 17 July for the following events:

Brown Bag Lunch (12-1): Using a combination of lecture and discussion, Linda Palmer will introduce the audience to the rise of the Puritans in England and the Puritans’ disagreements with each other after they reach the New World. You will also “meet” Ann Vassall, wife of William Vassall, an influential, yet unpopular figure among the Bay leaders. She will talk to her audience as though it were 1637 and they had just arrived in the Massachusetts Bay Colony.

Teacher Fellow Reception (1-2): Stick around after the lunch discussion to welcome the 2009 Teacher Fellows and hear about their projects.
