North Andover Historical Society

Historic house museums have long shaped how we understand the past—but whose stories have been centered, and whose have been left untold?
Hidden Histories is a dynamic panel discussion that brings together museum professionals, historians, and cultural practitioners to explore how historic sites can move beyond traditional narratives to tell fuller, more inclusive stories.
Hosted by The Trustees in partnership with the North Andover Historical Society and North Shore Juneteenth Association Inc., this conversation will examine how historic house museums are reinterpreting spaces, collections, and archives to acknowledge the lives, labor, and experiences of marginalized and underrepresented communities.&nbsp;

The Police Academy tribute band is one of the few younger acts in the tribute scene, bringing the energy, style, and sound of Sting and The Police at the height of their career. With authentic wardrobe, strong musicianship, and undeniable enthusiasm, they capture everything from the raw, stripped-down punk edge of The Police’s early records to the polished, synth-driven pop of their later hits.
Bandmates Joshua Jones, Jon McCracken, and Christian Hernandez share the same rock and jazz influence that shaped Sting, Stewart Copeland, and Andy Summers, giving their performance a standout authenticity. With experience in acclaimed tribute acts including Jumping Jack Flash, Wild Child, and The Fab Four, they bring world-class talent, humor, and showmanship to every show.
From favorites like “Message in a Bottle” and “Every Breath You Take” to deeper cuts like “Murder by Numbers” and “When the World is Running Down,” The Police Academy Tribute delivers an exciting, authentic tribute to one of the most iconic bands of the 1980s.

Join our no-commitment Non-Fiction Book Club led by Nina! This month we're reading The Confidante: The Untold Story of the Woman Who Helped Win WWII and Shape Modern America by Christopher C. Gorham.&nbsp; And author Christopher Gorham will be joining us for the discussion!As Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s special envoy to Europe in World War II she went where the president couldn’t go. She was among the first Allied women to enter a liberated concentration camp, and stood in the Eagle’s Nest, Hitler’s mountain retreat, days after its capture. Though Anna Rosenberg emerged from modest immigrant beginnings with only a high school education, she was the real power behind national policies critical to America winning the war and prospering afterward.&nbsp; Astonishingly, her story remains largely forgotten.Rosenberg advanced from a career in public relations in 1920s Manhattan to become FDR’s unofficial adviser, and soon wielded enormous influence—no less potent for being subtle. Roosevelt dubbed her “my Mrs. Fix-It.” Her extraordinary career continued after his death as she fought tirelessly for causes from racial integration to women’s equality to national health care.The Confidante explores who gets to be at the forefront of history, and why. Rosenberg’s position as “the power behind,” combined with her status as an immigrant and a Jewish woman, served to diminish her importance. In this inspiring, impeccably researched, and revelatory book, Christopher C. Gorham at last affords Anna Rosenberg the recognition she so richly deserves.
