About this Event
The literature Congregational publishing companies and churches have produced specifically for children has changed dramatically over the centuries, reflecting changing ideas about childhood and what constitutes appropriate topics for their learning and reading pleasure. This tour will explore the surprisingly rich children’s literature collection at the Congregational Library & Archives, many originally published at 14 Beacon.
Held in the CLA’s historic reading room at 14 Beacon Street, these monthly collection tours connect residents of Beacon Hill and the greater Boston region with original, rarely seen materials in the CLA’s collections.
This event will run from 12 to 1 pm and will begin with a short talk by Kyle Roberts, followed by plenty of time for browsing items from our collections and asking questions.
Thanks to the generosity of the Beacon Hill Civic Association, these programs are offered completely free of charge to the public. Reservations are appreciated but not required.
