Eastern National (the parent of America’s National Parks) donations helped to further interpretive operations at Minute Man National Historical Park.

Professional tailors led these workshops as EN funding covered travel stipends and presenter fees. The park’s signature event, Battle Road, uses hats, bonnets, and mitts made.
