Start your afternoon with us at 1:30 pm, for Paths to Spring where we'll be planting spring blooming bulbs along two historic pathways, now covered in turf grass and otherwise unmarked in the colonial section. We'll also be rejuvenating the mulch pathways around the Randall Park pollinator garden! No experience or tools required, though if you like using gardening gloves, bring your own. Take a break from your plant tending to participate in the international Talk Death Cemetery Scavenger Hunt! The clues for the scavenger hunt drop at 2:30 and the race to find and photograph each clue will before the hour is up. You might win the Talk Death Prizes, but your chances of winning an NBG prize are pretty high!
Finally, finish up your evening with our final installment of Four People, Two Stories, One Nation (rescheduled from the Nor'easter day). See a live theatrical performance exploring the love story of Freelove Fenner Jenckes and her husband, Captain Sylvanus Jenckes-two young revolutionaries whose courtship and marriage was set against the backdrop of their activity in the Sons and Daughters of Liberty. Featuring Michael Brahce as Sylvanus Jenckes and Kelly Robertson as Freelove Fenner Jenckes.
Meet at the Rochambeau Gate for each of these programs-hang out with us for the whole day or come just for a program or two-we'd love to see you and celebrate the end of our favorite season!
