Event Date: 
Wednesday, June 20, 2018 - 1:00pm to 2:30pm

Across the nation there is strong admiration and deep respect for the architecture of New England churches.  On Wednesday June 20 from 1:00 to 2:30pm a slideshow will be presented on the Architecture of New England Churches 1680-1930.  Some fine South Shore examples will be noted, but we will also look wider across New England to survey the full range of structures.  Depending upon a specific church under discussion, our overview will show interiors, exteriors or both.  We will also take time to examine the placement at a specific location, and its relation to sightlines created by landscaping and other buildings.   The speaker will be antiques writer Bob Jackman.  If you have an image of a specific church, bring it to the show, and Bob will be happy to offer comments.  While the talk will be organized around a sequence of 70 slides, the atmosphere will be informal with questions and answers throughout the presentation.  Expect to learn a bit, share some laughs, and have a good time.  Fee $4.  Please sign up at 781-545-8722.
