Members Only: Dames exclusive walking tour of Beacon Hill with Hub Town Tours
May 17, 2023 @ 2:00 pm - 4:30 pm
FreeJoin fellow Dames on a walking tour of Beacon Hill with Prescott House’s tour partner, Hub Town Tours.
This tour will bring you into the must-see neighborhood of Beacon Hill, home to 19th-century mansions, cobblestone alleys, and Underground Railroad stops. As you stroll past all fourteen official landmarks on the Black Heritage Trail, hear true tales of incredible courage from the abolitionist movement prior to the American Civil War. Along the way, learn about Bostonians’ central role in the “Second Revolution”—a decades-long struggle for freedom by Americans, Black and white, who defied 19th-century racial enslavement by demanding liberty and justice for all across the United States of America.
This is a fantastic opportunity to meet the Hub Town Tours team while learning about history in your own backyard.
The tour will meet at Prescott House and will last for approximately 2.5 hours. Bring comfortable walking shoes and a water bottle!
