Discovering New England Stone Walls

All of us are likely to be curious about those old stone walls we come across in our walks in the woods. Our next program, Friday evening June 16 at 7 p.m. at Town Hall, is all about Discovering New England Stone Walls.

Kevin Gardner, author of The Granite Kiss, explains how and why New England came to acquire its thousands of miles of stone walls, the ways in which they and other dry stone structures were built, how their styles emerged and changed over time and their significance to the famous New England landscape. Along the way, Kevin occupies himself building a miniature wall or walls on a tabletop, using tiny stones from a five-gallon bucket. 

Come join us to learn more.
