The Pierce Manse will host the Brigade Lecture Series program “Saving the General’s House” at 2 p.m. Wednesday, May 27, at The Pierce Manse in Concord.
Trish Jackson, chapter regent of the DAR Molly Stark Chapter, will present a slide program on the chapter’s work to save the boyhood home of Gen. John Stark. The building had been scheduled for demolition during a state highway construction project before the group acquired it and moved it to its current location in 1968.
The program is free and open to the public. Seating is limited.
The Pierce Manse reopens for tours May 28. Tours run 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays through Oct. 24. Admission is $10 for adults, $9 for seniors, $5 for children and $25 for families.
