A New Revolution in Lexington

Thursday, July 25, 7:00 PM

At the Lexington Depot, 13 Depot Sq.

Did you know that Lexington has the second highest Chinese population in Massachusetts? How did that come to be? What role have Chinese families played in the town’s changing demographics?

Join Lexington High School student Sophia Zhang and a multigenerational panel to explore the evolution of Lexington’s Chinese-American community. Our presenters will put immigration within broader historical contexts, as well as highlighting the community’s civil contributions to Lexington through time.

Suggested donation $10 Tickets available on Eventbrite, or at the door! More information at www.lexingtonhistory.org

你一定不想错过的
“莱镇七月早知道“
 
炽热静止,是当时的空气
平顺丝滑,是流动的河水
一动不动,是沉睡的阴影

亨利·华兹华斯·朗费罗,诗人
 
Very hot and still the air was,
Very smooth the gliding river,
Motionless the sleeping shadows.
