1:00 – 4:00 p.m.
A Trails and Sails event in collaboration with the Essex Heritage Foundation Tours
Visit “Diamond District” places of worship and Quaker village/cemetery. The venues offer opportunities to walk the same streets and view much of the same scenic shoreline as seen over 100 years ago. Lynn Shore Dr. offers beautiful vistas and recreational opportunities. Attend a free concert at 1 PM at the Christian Science Church (153 Lynn Shore Dr.), and 3 PM at Central Congregational Church (97 Broad Street) both featuring their historic organs. Then tour the historic Quaker Village and cemetary, and learn about the Congregation Ahabat Shalom at 151 Ocean Street. Exquisite architecture, history, stained glass, etc.
Event capacity: 200.
Special Instructions: From the Christian Science Church, at 153 Lynn Shore Drive, you will be given a simple map to all the places on your Diamond District Tour. The tours in the individual venues are guided, but the short walk from one venue to the next is self-guided.
