Watch a video message from Revolutionary Spaces CEO Nathaniel Sheidley.
The Bostonian Society and the Old South Association have merged to form Revolutionary Spaces.
The new organization will steward and interpret both the Old State House and the Old South Meeting House as places for all to come together to explore the debates and questions that have shaped our nation since the dawn of the American Revolution.
Join us for programs and exhibitions that challenge our understanding of the past and help us explore the future we want to build together.
Built in 1713, the Old State House was a seat of British power, and became a point of origin for vital debates about self-government that sparked the Revolution.
Today, it is a place for all people to connect to our nation’s birth and add their voices to the conversation that began here, 250 years ago.
Take part in a story that doesn’t belong to just one person, one place, or one era.
Join the ongoing American Revolution.

Sunday August 25 marks the 400th anniversary of the first landing of enslaved Africans in the English colonies of North America. This day will be commemorated as a day of healing and reconciliation marked by the ringing of bells across the country. The Bostonian Society has several bells in its collection, one of which has ties to this history.
