Tavern Talk: Henry Knox and his Noble Train of Artillery: A 2-Part Series

Experience the Tavern Tradition -- history shared out loud among neighbors.   Part 1 (1/26): Ethan Allen, Benedict Arnold and the Gibraltar of North America" Part 2 (2/9): "The Noble Train Arrives: Knox, Washington and the End of the Siege." As we continue to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the Revolution, it is time to celebrate the achievements of Henry Knox, the 25-year old Boston bookseller who, against considerable odds, somehow oversaw the transport of 59 pieces of artillery from Fort Ticonderoga across the Hudson, over the Berkshires and across the length of Massachusetts to the American army camped outside of Boston. But how did those cannon become available in the first place? In the first installment of a two-part series, we will tell the story of Ticonderoga and its improbable capture, followed by the arrival of Knox six months later. Then we will begin the epic tale of the journey of the Noble Train, following it down the 'Queen of American Lakes'" towards "the River that Flows Both Ways." In the second part of our commemoration of Knox and the Noble Train, we will follow the Ticonderoga cannon over the Berkshires, across the Connecticut River and finally to Dorchester Heights, where their emplacement would finally drive Lord Howe to abandon Boston. The siege was finally over. Join us as we celebrate that 'Noble Train' of artillery that gave Americans their first major victory of the Revolution. "Dan Breen's descriptions are so vivid, you can feel the wind on your face!" <a href="https://www.eventbrite.com/e/tavern-talk-henry-knox-and-his-noble-train-of-artillery-a-2-part-series-tickets-1979762443763?aff=ebdsshcopyurl&amp;utm-campaign=social&amp;utm-content=attendeeshare&amp;utm-medium=discovery&amp;utm-term=listing&amp;utm-source=cp">https://www.eventbrite.com/e/tavern-talk-henry-knox-and-his-noble-train-of-artillery-a-2-part-series-tickets-1979762443763?aff=ebdsshcopyurl&amp;utm-campaign=social&amp;utm-content=attendeeshare&amp;utm-medium=discovery&amp;utm-term=listing&amp;utm-source=cp</a> Happens on the following Dates:<ul><li>Jan 26, 2026, 7:00pm to 8:00pm Timezone: Eastern Time (US &amp; Canada)</li><li>Feb 9, 2026, 7:00pm to 8:00pm Timezone: Eastern Time (US &amp; Canada)</li></ul>

Raise a Glass to the Marquee Party

Step back in time and celebrate a moment more than a century in the making.​ In September, the Larcom Theatre proudly unveiled its replica 1912 marquee, meticulously restored to reflect the brilliance and charm of our original opening era. While the lights returned close to opening day, we never had the chance to truly celebrate—until now. ​Join us for Raise a Glass to the Marquee Party, an evening filled with nostalgia, community, and vintage flair. Come dressed in your finest 1910s–1920s attire (encouraged, not required), then step inside our vintage theatre to mingle, enjoy light snacks and sweets, enter raffles, raise a glass and celebrate with friends and neighbors as we honor the Larcom’s enduring legacy. As the evening unfolds, we will dim the lights for a special screening of The Count of Monte Cristo (2002), the very film shown on the Larcom’s original opening day in 1912 —closing the night the same way it began over 100 years ago.​ What to Expect: •🥂 Light snacks and sweets included with admission •🎶 Mingling and exciting raffles •🍸 Cash/Credit bar available •🎬 Historic opening-day film screening •🎩 Vintage attire encouraged (but not required!) This isn’t just a party—it is a toast to preservation, perseverance, and community. The marquee once again shines as a beacon in Downtown Beverly, and this night honors everyone who helped bring it back to life.Come celebrate where it all began.Come dressed for the era.Come raise a glass to the Larcom. 🥂 Thelarcom.org/marqueeparty
