Why did General Gage feel compelled to send British regulars up the Mystic River to seize the contents of the Powderhouse? There is no way to answer that question without considering the series of monumental mistakes committed first by the British ministry and then by Gage himself, in the months and weeks leading up to the events of September 1, 1774. This May is an appropriate time to review those mistakes, as we commemorate the 250th anniversary of Gage's fateful arrival in Boston.
Location details and sign-up links will be posted at least one week in advance of each event at somervillemuseum.org/preservation-month.
Throughout the month of May, the Somerville Museum partners with the City of Somerville and members of the community to host events honoring Somerville’s history. All events are open to the public, ADA accessible, and free.
