SUMMARY:Warren Bingham on George Washington
DESCRIPTION:***NOW FULL***\n\nHear from Warren Bingham on his book\,” George Washington’s 1791 Southern Tour”. Bingham has been featured in notable print as well as broadcast media such as PBS. He will also be signing and selling his book. He grew-up in North Carolina and has lived most of his adult life in Raleigh. Though Bingham has had a career in financial and philanthropic services\, he has long maintained a vigorous sideline as a writer and speaker on topics in history. In 2016\, his book on Washington’s Southern Tour was published and he took a year to make over a hundred public and media appearances scattered from DC to Georgia.. During that book tour\, Bingham spoke twice at Mount Vernon\, appeared on C-SPAN\, was interviewed by National Public Radio in Atlanta\, appeared on Wilmington television news\, and was featured on North Carolina BookWatch on PBS North Carolina.\n\nThe event will take place in the Courthouse on the BHA’s grounds and is FREE for all but RESERVATIONS ARE REQUIRED due to limited space. All Beaufort Historic Site events are subject to change.\n\nLearn more about the book below!\n_____________________\nThis account of the first president’s trip to unite a young America “follows Washington’s travels day-by-day with detailed information about each stop” (Daily Herald).\n\nNewly elected president George Washington set out to visit the new nation aware that he was the singular unifying figure in America. The journey’s finale was the Southern Tour\, begun in March 1791. The long and arduous trek from the capital\, Philadelphia\, passed through seven states and the future Washington\, DC. But the focus was on Virginia\, the Carolinas\, and Georgia. The president kept a rigorous schedule\, enduring rugged roads and hazardous water crossings. His highly anticipated arrival in each destination was a community celebration with countless teas\, parades\, dinners\, and dances. Author Warren Bingham reveals the history and lore of the most beloved American president and his survey of the newly formed southern United States.

SUMMARY:Voices of the Past: SOLD OUT
DESCRIPTION:SOLD OUT \n\nThe Beaufort Historic Site will be hosting a special Old Burying Ground Tour on Saturday\, October 30 at 5:30 p.m. The tour\, taking place Halloween weekend\, is called Voices of the Past. It will bring to life the stories of those who have long passed and have been laid to rest in the Old Burying Ground. Tickets are $15 for adults and $7 for ages 6-12\, and will be available for purchase in the Old Beaufort Shop until October 29 or until sold out.\n\n  \nWhile the Historic Site offers tours of the Old Burying Ground year-round\, Voices of the Past will have a twist. Guests will be grouped with an appointed “Burial Caretaker”\, who knows the ins and outs of the grounds and will lead them through this unique experience. As guests traverse through the grounds by mere lantern light\, they will find the Old Burying Ground quite literally coming to life. \n  \nSeven different burial sites of seven passed souls with seven unique stories will be a part of this tour. However\, instead of the “caretaker” sharing these stories\, those who have passed will tell their own. Guests can expect to hear the story of Vienna Dill\, a child buried in a unique casket; Josiah Bell\, the past owner of the Josiah Bell House now located on the Historic Site Grounds; a British Officer\, who is buried in a way to honor the British Crown; Captain Otway Burns\, a naval hero in the War of 1812; the Girl Buried in Rum; Nancy Manney French\, the story of forbidden love reunited; and Sarah Gibbs and Jacob Shepard\, the story of lost lovers in life\, but together in death. \n  \nTickets are on sale now by calling 252-728-5225 or by visiting the Old Beaufort Shop\, located on the grounds of the Beaufort Historic Site at 130 Turner Street.

SUMMARY:Black History Bus Tour
DESCRIPTION:Join the Beaufort Historic site for a special English Double-Decker Bus Tour about Black History in Beaufort\, N.C. Beaufort native\, Curtis Oden will narrate. This informative historic bus tour will cover over 25 sites and will take off from the Beaufort Historic Site at 130 Turner St. on September 5 at 3 p.m. and September 19 at 1:30 p.m. The tour will last about an hour and will cost $15 per person. \nThe bus will be driven through the streets of downtown Beaufort while Oden points out historic sites such as churches\, stores\, and residents that have been influential in shaping black history in Beaufort. \nOne of the very first black-owned stores in the town was a shoe shop that sat next to the Josiah Bell House on Turner St. “It was one of the very first black-owned shoe shops and it was run by Mr. Adam Wright and also my great grandfather\, Collins Oden\, and then later my great uncle Curtis Oden was the one who ran it\,” Oden said. \nOden’s relatives were not the only black-owned businesses in the area.  Just down the road on Front St. was a blacksmith shop that was owned by a man named Mr. Fisher. On that same street was the Sam Lipman Convenience Store and it sat directly where the First Citizens Bank ATM is now. \nWhile Oden will point out many older historic areas\, he also will show you some of the places he grew up visiting such as the Purvis Chapel A.M.E. Zion Methodist Church and the old location of The Beaufort Theater. \n“During the ’50s and ’60s my friends and I would go to the Beaufort Theater\, and see then it was whites would sit on the main level and the blacks would have to set in the balcony\, but it was always okay\, we would make jokes about how we really had the best seats in the house!” Oden said. “I grew up and was baptized at the Methodist Church (Purvis Church) and that is where blacks and whites would worship together\, there it was also white people on the main level and blacks in the balcony.” \nNo stranger to the community\, Oden said he is excited to come back and narrate this tour for Beaufort and all of its residents and visitors. He said one of his favorite things about doing the tour is getting to talk about all that Beaufort used to be and what it has become to all of the tour groups. “I like getting to see the people’s excitement about the things I am telling them about Beaufort\,” Oden said\, “Getting to have had grown up in the community and being able to do this tour and talk about some of the stuff I grew up with has been one of my favorite things.” \nTickets are on sale now at the Beaufort Historic Site Welcome Center.
