A Night with Abigail Adams

Mark America’s 250th anniversary with a living history program centered on Abigail Adams at the Mattapoisett Free Public Library. Audrey Stuck-Girard appears as Abigail in full colonial attire, sharing the Adams family story and their political involvement in the American Revolution. The presentation highlights how an everyday Massachusetts family was drawn into significant public service during a pivotal time.
