SUMMARY:Washburn at War
DESCRIPTION:WASHBURN AT WAR:\nSaturday\, November 11 at 2pm\n$20 Non Member/$10 Members\, please pre-register as space is limited\n\nThe lecture will appeal to anyone interested in the goings on during World War Two on the Cape. We cover the big stories\, visits to Washburn by Gen. Patton and Heavy Weight\, Champ Joe Louis. There are small stories\, like kids combing the shoreline for discarded Army foil packets of instant coffee\, which their mothers craved because of rationing and lonely soldiers being ordered to release chipmunks they had captured and tried to make pets out of! Join us and you will learn something guaranteed! The lecture is a joint fundraiser for the Falmouth Museum on the Green and the Cape Cod Military Museum.\n\n\nJoe Yukna Bio: \nMy interest in the Military history of the Cape started when I worked as a Department of Defense Police Officer on Camp Edwards/Otis ANGB in the late 1980’s. Driving around the base and seeing all the abandoned buildings made me wonder what went on here. I put out a call to get a museum going on Cape Cod.  Jerry Ellis answered that call. We had secured two barracks and six surrounding acres on Camp Edwards then an open base. September 11th ended that phase of the Military Museum.  After a hiatus we have been working on getting a venue to tell our amazing story. We have been collecting artifacts\, and information on military activities here on the Cape and the overseas activities of units that trained here. We have helped out various historical societies with military displays. We offer a series of photo lectures to educate the public and promote the museum. After leaving the D.O.D. Police force\, I started my own dog training business and am better known as Joe the Dogman. I am the son of a WWII /Korean War Navy Veteran and the Father of an Army War on Terror Veteran. \nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Falmouth in the Civil War-CANCELLED
DESCRIPTION:*PLEASE NOTE THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED DUE TO ILLNESS\n\nTuesday\, September 19th at 4pm\nwith Michael McNaught\n\nWhile Falmouth produced nobody as heroic as Colonel Robert Gould Shaw\, colonel of the 54th Massachusetts  Volunteer Infantry (immortalized in the movie “Glory”)\, it sent its fair share of combat soldiers and sailors to the Union forces during the Civil War.  Since Falmouth was a staunchly abolitionist town\, this talk will discuss some of those who fought and died for the Union cause. In this special lecture given by Falmouth resident Michael McNaught come hear fascinating stories about the soldiers and the memorials erected in their honor. The event is a collaboration between the Falmouth Historical Society and the Oak Grove Cemetery of Falmouth\, INC.\n\n\n$10/Members\, $20/Non-member\n\nRegister Here\nSponsored by:

SUMMARY:Art After Hours: The History of Wallpaper
DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, September 14 at 4pm \nThis event is now free and open to the public in memory of Grace Hauser. Includes appetizers and wine. Limited capacity\, please pre-register. \nJoin wallpaper specialist Robert M. Kelly as he delves into the fascinating world of historic wallpapers. Special emphasis will be given to the wallpaper located in the 1790 Dr. Francis Wicks House. This French wallpaper dates to c. 1800. Captain Nathaniel Eldred imported it for his West Falmouth house. It depicts 18th century France with classical statuary\, buildings\, and a Chinese bridge. The paper is rare and can only be found in two other museums including the Museum of Fine Arts\, Boston and the Smithsonian. The source of the design is a series of prints from Philibert-Louis Debucourt’s “A Day in Paris at the End of the 18th Century and Beginning of the 19th Century.” A later owner of Captain Nathaniel Eldred’s home\, Mrs. Carleton Bourne in 1948\, donated it to the historical society. William Young from the Museum of Fine Arts\, Boston\, painstakingly installed it. The paper is fragile and has been conserved several times. \n\nSpeakers website: https://wallpaperscholar.com/index.html\nRegister Here
