What better time than the Summer Solstice to join us for a walk through historic Oak Hill Cemetery on the longest day of the year?
To add to the intimacy and atmosphere, many epitaphs are easiest to read by flashlight. Join noted author and historian Ghlee Woodworth, a 12th generation Newburyport native, and Museum of Old Newbury executive director Bethany Groff Dorau for an evening stroll through the historic 1842 Oak Hill Cemetery, final resting place of shipwrecked sailors, sea captains and merchants, architects and photographers, writers and poets, silversmiths and newspaper editors, and adventurers who travelled to the California gold rush. We will toast the longest day with lemonade and good cheer.
