Friday May 22nd, 10am-3pm
Begin your day with a private tour of the Ralph Waldo Emerson House. Enjoy the home, Lidian’s garden and the renovated barn. Then join us at the Wright Tavern for a noon luncheon provided by Concord Market. A performance by historian and playwright Phil Paradis follows, as he entertains visitors as Waldo himself in 1871. Experience Emerson as he charms guests with anecdotes and views on nature, science, politics, religion and slavery. With dry wit and humor, Emerson’s words will provide you with new perspectives on America then and now, and you will leave heartened by his ideas and hopeful optimism.
