Conversations with Historical Objects

Each week we’ll focus on one object from the Dudley Farm museum collections and explore what stories can be generated from different perspectives. Objects will include: Amy Dudley’s book of cloth scraps, a stone tool from 7000 years ago, and a 19 th -century mushball. Discussion will be limited to 15 people to allow for full participation and we’ll meet in a circle at various locations around the farm.

Jim Powers is an historian and archaeologist and founding member of the Dudley Farm
Museum.
