Each month, tune in to explore some of our favorite artifacts, delve into the overarching themes of our galleries, or get a sneak peek into the planning and design of an upcoming exhibit.
On February 26, 2025, join our Curator of Exhibitions for a deeper examination of enslavement and abolition in colonial Northampton County. What was daily life like as an enslaved person in the county? How did the Act for the Gradual Abolition of Slavery in 1780 affect enslaved men, women, and children, and what are their stories?
