You may know Ralph Waldo Emerson as the venerable Sage of Concord, but he was also a husband, father, and friend. In this unique guided tour, we’ll share affectionate and personal stories from the Emerson household and explore life with Waldo from the perspectives of his wife, Lidian, and their children—Ellen, Edith and Edward—as well as many of the visitors they welcomed into their home. 

Tickets are $15 at the door and no registration is required.
