“Suffragette”
In early 20th-century Britain, the growing suffragette movement forever changes the life of working wife and mother Maud Watts (Carey Mulligan). Galvanized by political activist Emmeline Pankhurst (Meryl Streep), Watts joins a diverse group of women who fight for equality and the right to vote. Faced with increasing police action, Maud and her dedicated suffragettes must play a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse, risking their jobs, homes, family and lives for a just cause. Please call COA at 526-6368 to register.
This program is brought to you in partnership with Over There, Over Here: World War I and Life in N.H. Communities, a multi-group collaboration commemorating the 100th anniversary of the United States entry into World War I. www.overthereoverhere.com

A New Hampshire Humanities presentation
“A Walk Back in Time: The Secret of Cellar Holes”
Tuesday, August 29 5:00pm
Presented by Adair Mulligan, Executive Director of the Hanover Conservancy
Northern New England is full of reminders of past lives: stone walls, old foundations, a century-old lilac struggling to survive as the forest reclaims a once-sunny dooryard. What forces shaped settlement, and later abandonment, of these places? Adair Mulligan explores the rich story to be discovered in what remains behind. See how one town has set out to create an inventory of its cellar holes, piecing together the clues in the landscape.
