Description
Lantern2021, a virtual family-friendly event, will celebrate the heroic actions of April 18, 1775 and Old North's legacy of active citizenship. Join us for an uplifting evening featuring original music by Ryan Ahlwardt (formerly of Straight No Chaser), a spirited performance of the poem "Paul Revere's Ride" by Rick Taylor (as Henry Wadsworth Longfellow), and the inspiring words of honoree Dave McGillivray, long-time Race Director for the Boston Marathon.
LANTERN SERVICE
The Congregation of Old North Church, the oldest Episcopal Church parish in Boston, will hold a special service of Choral Matins on the morning of April 18th, led by Vicar-in-Charge, the Rev. Dr. Matthew Cadwell and Bishop Alan M. Gates. The program will feature our historic pipe organ, guest musicians, and the Old North Chamber Choir, under the direction of Dr. Libor Dudas. The service will be held virtually at 11am.
LANTERN LIGHTING
The annual lighting of the lanterns will take place shortly after the conclusion of Lantern2021. This event will stream live on our Facebook page. Be sure to like us on Facebook for more details as they are announced.
