Windsor Historical Society

Join leading Benjamin Franklin scholar George Boudreau, PhD, on July 21, 6:30 p.m. - 7:45 p.m. at Windsor Historical Society for a look into how the “First American” worked to better his community and himself. 
 
The program will focus on the many ways Franklin sought to transform the world around him: creating America’s first public library, first non-sectarian college, first public hospital, and his numerous scientific inquiries. It will contemplate how this commitment for public good led to his leadership in the American Revolution and in the new nation it created. 
 
“Benjamin Franklin’s life, ideas, and legacy offer an outstanding lens through which to view early American history and culture,” says historian George Boudreau. “His words gave meaning to the lives of colonists who were becoming Americans. His inventions reflected the ideas and needs of his fellow citizens. His actions ensured the development of colonial society, the creation of the American republic, and its security under the Constitution.” 
 
A Philadelphia resident, George Boudreau has published multiple books on early America, held fellowships at the Library Company of Philadelphia and the American Philosophical Society (both founded by Franklin), the David Library of the American Revolution, the McNeil Center for Early American Studies, Thomas Jefferson's Monticello, and Winterthur Museum, and created a popular teacher training program on Franklin through the National Endowment for the Humanities.

Children ages 8-11 (or entering 3rd-6th grade) will explore Windsor history while having fun in a historical setting! Learn about Windsor’s people and their stories while “doing” history! Daily program themes build an understanding of Windsor’s diverse history from earliest times to the present day.
Monday, August 3, Colonial Connections. Students will learn about 1600s Connecticut through crafts and play. They will learn to weave, make a sparkling shad, and compete in colonial games.
Tuesday, August 4, 1776 Sensations. 2026 marks the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. In honor of the American Revolution, students will set up a soldier’s tent, discover the music of the fife and drum, and learn the beautiful science of cartography.
Wednesday, August 5, Boats and Bridges. The early 1800s were defined by a transportation revolution. Trains, bridges, and the Windsor Locks Canal system forever changed how people and products came to Windsor. Students will learn how to work the canals, build a boat that floats, and a rail that won’t fail.
Thursday, August 6, Impressions and Imagination. Connecticut has an important place in art history. Circa 1900, American Impressionism found its heart in our tiny state. It was also the home of the creator of the Crayola crayon. Students will honor this history by creating their own Impressionist masterpiece and crafting with crayons.
Friday, August 7, Modernizing Moments. Radio, television, and movies all found their form in the early 1900s. Students will get a behind-the-scenes look at the Historical Society’s collection, explore the science behind these technologies, and refresh themselves with a signature soda.
