As we near the 250th anniversary of Patriots’ Day, Kate Fox and David Wood join The Culture Show for a conversation about the major events that ignited the first year of the American Revolution: the battles of Lexington and Concord. Kate Fox is the Executive Director at the Massachusetts Office of Travel and Tourism, which is leading the Massachusetts 250 campaign. David Wood is the Curator at Concord Museum. His latest book is “Eyewitness to Revolution: The American Revolution Collection at the Concord Museum.”

From there, Karina Corrigan joins The Culture Show for an overview of the Peabody Essex Museum’s exhibition “Saints, Sinners, Lovers and Fools: Three Hundred Years of Flemish Masterworks." Karina Corrigan is PEM's Associate Director–Collections and The H.A. Crosby Forbes Curator of Asian Export Art.

Then, Culture Show contributor Pedro Alonzo joins us for his monthly appearance. He is a Boston-based independent curator who specializes in public art projects. He is also the Artistic Director of the Boston Public Art Triennial.

Finally, we return to 1775 by way of some archival audio from WGBH’s vault, a recording of the late Doctor Alfred Worcester recalling the story his great grandmother told him about experiencing Patriots’ Day in 1775.
