Annual Fall Celebration: The Abolitionist Movement in Fitchburg

Here is an opportunity to learn about the Abolitionist Movement in Fitchburg, MA. This is exciting for me because I teach this subject, but I've never come across Fitchburg in any of my studies on this. It's super cool for me.

If you want to join me, please sign up. I'll be going for sure. If there is inclement weather, we will cancel. There is no cost. Food trucks will be there.

The address is: 50 Snow Street Fitchburg MA.

I am unable to post it through meetup.com
