About Flipping the Script: The Women of the Manse

Join us for a captivating tour where we flip the script and delve into the untold stories of the remarkable women who lived in The Old Manse! Rather than focusing solely on the famous men, we’ll shine a light on the inspiring voices and experiences of the women whose lives intertwined with this historic home, shaping its legacy and leaving a lasting impact on history that resonates powerfully today.

This tour is recommended for children ages 12 and above. Space is limited and advanced registration is recommended. Upon arrival, please check in at the bookstore. It is recommended to arrive 10-15 before your tour starts.

The historic house has several flights of steep stairs and is not wheelchair accessible. Please note, there is no public restroom on site at the Old Manse and the restrooms at the National Park are closed, restrooms are available nearby at the Concord Visitor’s Center. Please plan accordingly. Parking is available in front of the museum in The Old Manse parking lot.
