Our friends at the Emerson Society invite all to attend an online symposium featuring graduate student works in progress on the subjects of Emerson and transcendentalism.

The virtual symposium is free to attend and will be held over Zoom.

Join guest speaker David Wood—Curator of the Concord Museum—for a a look into the inner sanctum of this world-famous poet, essayist and speaker, who spent his writing, thinking and conversing hours in his beloved study.

Sponsored by The Friends of Sleepy Hollow, this talk will be held in the main dining room of Concord’s Colonial Inn. Tickets are $25/each, including a full breakfast, and reservations are required.

Join historian and author Harold Holzer for a talk exploring the career of the preeminent American sculptor Daniel Chester French, whose works include The Minute Man in Concord and the iconic statue of Abraham Lincoln for the Lincoln Memorial. French was a friend and neighbor of Emerson and also sculpted several likenesses of him.

This event is sponsored by the Concord Museum and will be held in the Churchill and Janet Franklin Lyceum in the Rasmussen Education Center. Tickets are $5.00 for members and $10 for non-members.
