DEPOT BUILDING

Before Lexington was Lexington, Indigenous communities have lived in this area for thousands of years. Today, we celebrate them with a free open house at the Lexington Depot to learn more about Native American culture.

9:00 – 10:00 AM, join science educator Fran Ludwig for a guided walk of the Lexington Paint Mine, a nature preserve and perfect showcase of the plants, animals, and minerals used by Native communities. Tour will meet at the Estabrook School parking lot.

10:00 AM – 4:00 PM, explore the Depot to view all of Lexington’s history, from pre-European contact to today, free of charge.

From 12:00 – 3:00 PM, explore an outdoor cultural festival in Emery Park, featuring Native artists, Navajo music, Wampanoag dance, and interactive crafts for the whole family.

Free!
