Every individual, regardless of age or net worth, needs an estate plan. Completing an estate plan will assist you in the management of your assets, make matters easier for your family in the event that you become incapacitated or die, and may offer some asset protection for loved ones.

They were an impressive couple at the turn of the 20th century. Charles Eastman was a Santee Sioux, a Dartmouth-educated doctor, and an author and speaker; Elaine Eastman was a renowned children’s author and a national leader in Native American education. Together, they witnessed the massacre at Wounded Knee, helped shape Americans’ views of Indians, and started a summer camp in New Hampshire that encouraged the use of indigenous themes in the American camping movement. In this conversation with the Society’s Director of Education Elizabeth Dubrulle, scholars Julie Dobrow and Raymond Wilson discuss the Eastmans’ remarkable story of love and loss. This program, conducted via Zoom, is free for everyone. Registration is required through the Programs &amp; Events Calendar on the Society’s website at nhhistory.org.

The Walker Lecture Series invites you to:
Irish voices with Stephen Collins and
Edgar Allan Poe's The Raven; with a guest appearance by Emily Dickinson with Jeffrey Zygmont
Irish voices 
They call it The Norton Anthology of English Literature and yet many of the writers included were born in Ireland. The commonality, of course, is the English language but there are vast cultural differences which will be explored in this performance.Much Irish writing deals with the land, the past, the church, and the changing political landscape. Yeats, Joyce, Heaney, McCourt, and other prominent writers are represented in this dramatic offering.
Edgar Allan Poe's The Raven
Greet Halloween with Edgar Allan Poe. 
Hear a dramatic recital of Edgar Allan Poe’s most famous poem, The Raven – the perfect work of American art to put us in a spooky mood. With props to enhance the suspenseful, supernatural tone of the poem, Jeffrey Zygmont delivers the recital with commentary and a summary of Poe’s life and significance. The program includes Poe’s poem “The Bells,” plus some poems by Emily Dickinson that enhance the chilling atmosphere.
