Big Watch: Film Screening & Discussion with NH Humanities

Together, we’ll watch a short excerpt from THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION, a new film directed by Ken Burns, Sarah Botstein and David Schmidt, followed by a community discussion. The featured segment from THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION,“The Spirit of Service,” explores service as a core American value, from the nation’s founding through to the present day – examining volunteerism, civic participation, public leadership, and more. Expert facilitators will guide thoughtful conversations about “remembering together,” considering questions such as: What moments from our past define who we are and point to a shared future? What are the key historical moments in your town’s or community’s history? How does focusing on these moments shape your sense of your community’s future?
