“A Clock With Wooden Works” will be the subject of a program following the Thursday, June 13 meeting of the Colrain Historical Society in Joan McQuade’s barn at 7 Main Road.
A mantel clock in the collection of the Society raises questions about the history of wooden works, when they became metal, and about clockmaking in New England in the 19th Century and earlier. Conway clockmaker Marc Desrosiers will lead this exploration, and attendees may want to bring curious clocks for him to examine.
The program at 7:30 p.m. will follow a 7 p.m. business meeting. At the meeting we’ll have the latest on the Pitt House property and results of the wonderful “Colrain On Canvas” Art Show. Meeting and program are open to the public, and refreshments will be served. For information call Belden at 624-3453.
