SUMMARY:Tuesdays - Depot Ave Walking Tour
DESCRIPTION:Historical Walking Tours of the 2025 season \nThe “Depot Ave Walking Tour” on Tuesdays\, at 10:30am\, leaving from the Hallett Barn Visitors Center (please arrive 15 minutes ahead of time). \nFalmouth’s maritime past is proudly remembered\, but there’s more to the history of our town.  When the railroad arrived in 1871\, Falmouth’s link to the world shifted from the sea to the rails.  Trains brought visitors and freight to town multiple times daily.  A bustling commercial zone arose\, centered around the hub of the train station on Depot Ave.  Join us as we explore this aspect of Falmouth’s industrial past and how it led to discussions over zoning and development that we live with today.  Along the way\, you’ll also see lovely examples of late 19th and early 20th century homes built by Cape Codders who gave up seafaring and prospered in professions like insurance\, hospitality\, and retail. \nView our Historical Walking Tour page for more information.

SUMMARY:Harmonies by Candlelight - Musick's Recreation
DESCRIPTION:All proceeds go to “Fix Wicks” * Dinner & a Show * Wicks House like you’ve Never Seen it Before! \nMusick’s Recreation\nHistoric homes like the Wicks House help us imagine what homelife for some people in early Massachusetts might have looked like\, but what might it have sounded like? Find out at a performance of historical music ensemble Lyracle’s program\, Musick’s Recreation. In this program\, Lyracle focuses on a few documented viol players in colonial MA as well as viol players who were left out of historical records. Lyracle connects what can be inferred about their varied musical experiences to English repertoire that was likely present in 17th and early 18th century MA. Experience the music of beloved composers like Henry Purcell and his lesser-known contemporaries recontextualized\, and help celebrate all kinds of local historic music-making: the silly\, the serious\, and everything in between! \n\n\n\nJOIN OUR ONCE IN A LIFETIME EVENT \nExperience timeless charm at the historical Wicks House on August 26th with an exclusive candlelight concert. Enjoy historic music by Lyracle\, indulge in a luxurious catered dinner\, and support the “Fix the Wicks” campaign. Don’t miss this rare evening of history\, music\, and elegance.
