Program Description

Event Details

As we approach the 250th anniversary of our nation’s founding, join us in honoring the revolutionary voices that helped shape America! Acclaimed performer Sheryl Faye brings Abigail Adams to life, sharing the story of a woman whose intellect, courage, and powerful words helped influence the course of history.

Abigail Adams, often called a founder of the United States, was more than just the wife of President John Adams—she was a sharp political thinker and a fierce advocate for women’s rights. Through her famous letters, she urged her husband to “remember the ladies” and provided eyewitness accounts of the American Revolution.
