Pirate or Patriot

    Improve listing Presented by

Examine Boston’s “Golden Age of Piracy", including Edward Low, "Black" Samuel Bellamy, and Captain William Kidd, and their connection to colonial Boston. Were they patriots or were they pirates? Were they greedy for plunder, or seeking economic and social revolution? 

This program is a part of the National Parks of Boston's "Saturdays in the Park" series, special topic programs on Saturday afternoons, January 11 through April 25, 2020.  A variety of programs have been selected with our neighbors in greater Boston in mind. It’s something different for the local crowd during the “off-season”.

All programs are free and open to the public.  All programs take place in the Charlestown Navy Yard Visitor Center.
