Celebrate the Semiquincentennial of the Declaration of Independence and the founding of the United States by hearing about the commonly known as well as the untold and unexplored story of Sharon's Stoughtonham Furnace that produced cannon and cannonballs for the Revolution.

This event will include a presentation and discussion as well as a chance to view related exhibits. There will also be time for a  creative activity -- an “in studio opportunity” to create items for the “Reflections on the Revolution: A Call to All”  Exhibition at 16 High Street in June.  This show  will display the works  of those  who have chosen to express, in their preferred medium, their views of the Revolutionary events and figures.  We are seeking  visual art, photography, poetry,  prose, music, videography, crafts, or any combination of these or other expressive techniques.  Contributor's  work will be documented and digitally preserved for the benefit of future historians and history lovers.

Stoughtonham Furnace Exhibit  will be on display through June and can also be viewed during our normal Open Hours:

2 - 4   Fridays

1 - 4   Saturdays

3 - 5    Sundays

f you are interested in helping with this event, contributing to the June Exhibition, or have any questions please email Programs@Sharonhistorical.org
