Founding Women on Burial Hill

First Saturdays on Burial Hill
Join Us on March 5th


Dr. Donna Curtin, Executive Director of Pilgrim Hall Museum, offers new perspectives on Plymouth's past through four centuries of women's experience represented on Burial Hill. Encounter generations of remarkable Plymoutheans - women whose contributions have rarely been included in historical narratives of the town.

Founding Women on Burial Hill is part of Burial Hill: History in Progress, a free program that will continue through the year 2020. Launched independently in 2011 by the Plymouth Antiquarian Society, the Burial Hill series is now a collaborative program with the Pilgrim Society & Pilgrim Hall Museum. Each year, we will present a series of history expeditions on Burial Hill, one of America's oldest and most significant burying grounds. Tours will be offered on the first Saturday of every month at 1 pm (excepting January); meet at the top of the Hill.

No reservations are required for individuals and families. Participants may traverse steep and slippery slopes; please wear appropriate shoes. Severe weather may cancel tour; updates will be posted on the Plymouth Antiquarian Society Facebook page.
