Black Heritage Trail events coming to Pierce Manse The 2025 Brigade Lecture Series presents “Black Heritage Trail of New Hampshire” with Barbara Ward, staff member at The Black Heritage Trail of New Hampshire.

The event will be held on Wednesday, August 20 at 2 p.m. The Brigade Lecture Series is produced by the Pierce Brigade and held May through October in Concord at the Pierce Manse — the historic home of President Franklin Pierce, the 14th President of the United States. Brigade Lecture Series programs are free and open to the public.

Created in the early 1990s, the Black Heritage Trail of New Hampshire was established as a way to commemorate the Granite State’s Black history. The presentation will highlight the mission and work of The Black Heritage Trail, which now features a series of historic markers throughout New Hampshire towns that honor the significant contributions that Black people, and their descendants, have made in the Granite State for more than 300 years.

Barbara Ward is senior grant writer and head of special projects at The Black Her-

itage Trail of New Hampshire. Her role involves researching and writing major grants and working with a team of people at on public and educational programs and curricula, oral histories and historic preservaSEE MANSE PAGE 5

Dwayne Higgins to play at Henniker Concert Series Rising blues and soul singer Dwayne Haggins will be playing for the first time in Henniker at the Angela Robinson Bandstand on Tuesday, August 19.

He’s been described as “the love child of Hank Williams and Otis Redding,” “The John Legend of rockabilly,” and even “the ‘whattook-you-so-long?’ fusion of Elvis Presley and Marvin Gaye.” At every performance, whether in a venerable metropolitan concert hall or a grimy dive in an anonymous strip mall, HENNIKER SUMMER CONCERT SERIES / Courtesy

Dwayne Haggins is always at work. He’s always adding new subtleties to an obvious melody line, reinterpreting a time-worn lyrical cliché to imbue it anew with genuine feeling, unleashing a gentle cascade of vocal acrobatics when least expected (and hence most effective) — never for show alone, but always to express a likewise unanticipated nuance of feeling: a whisper of love, a curse of anger, a groan of pain, a whoop of joy that feels, paradoxically, both surprising and inevitable at the same moment.

Since early 2017, Dwayne has been on a quest to make a living playing music, leaving his mark on dozens of bars, restaurants and clubs scattered across eastern and central Massachusetts. His distinctive sound, which delivers a brand-new take on the traditional country-blues and soul that he loves, has generated a rare sense of excitement and possibility throughout the area’s musical community. Notably, Haggins has shared the stage with acts such as Keb Mo, Joe Bonamassa, Ronnie Earl, George Thorogood, Eric Gales and Samantha Fish.

The Henniker Summer Music Series is sponsored by the town of Henniker, along with tonight’s sponsor, New England College, an accredited, private, nonprofit college, serving more than 5,000 undergraduate, graduate, and online students each year with an emphasis on experiential learning.

For the last three shows of the summer — August 19, August 26 and September 2 — we will be providing shuttle service to/from the concerts for Henniker residents. The shuttles will stop at the Knolls and Rush Square to accommodate non-driving residents and in SEE CONCERT PAGE 8

the communities we serve, which includes Concord and the surrounding area.

Q: Why do you choose to live in the Greater Concord area? Many reasons. Concord has a vibrant downtown. You can grab dinner at one of the many great restaurants, shop at the multitude of small businesses, see a show at the Capitol Center for the Arts or a movie at Red River Theatres. I also just love walking through Gibson’s and perusing the shelves.

There’s always something to do. And there are plenty of people here who love the community and are looking to make it even better or add something new to it.

Q: What is something you would like to see added or brought to Concord? I would LOVE for there to be a board game café and a cat café...or maybe a combination of both? Though perhaps the two don’t go together.

Q: Where did you go to school? I’m originally from upstate New York, so attended local schools there. I have a bachelor’s degree in international relations from Mount Holyoke College.

Q: What do you like to do for fun? I can be a home body so I definitely appreciate a quiet night in with a good book. But I also love food and trying new restaurants or revisiting favorites – Concord has so many great options. I’ve always been into music, so I love SEE PROFESSIONAL PAGE 11

country, where would you go? I really want to go to Scotland. I love the U.K. and Ireland, so Scotland is top of the list for me.

Q: Where is the best place you’ve visited?

Greece for two weeks as a kid with my family. I went to some pretty awesome historic places in Thessalonica and met some extended family in northern Greece. Plus, the food was really, really good. Especially the ice cream.

I also enjoy hiking.

Q: Favorite place to be?

Relaxing on the beach.

Q: How did you find out about CYPN and how has it benefitted your business or you personally? For me, CYPN has been a great way to meet other young professionals who love the Concord community as much as I do. There are so many great people who are doing amazing things here and are invested in Concord’s future. Plus, it can be difficult to make friends as an adult and CYPN has helped me to socialize here.

Q: What’s your favorite place to go in Concord?

Downtown on Main Street, especially during the holidays with the music playing.

Q: What has been your favorite CYPN event so far?

I loved the one at Go Native Gallery on Main Street.

Being around all the different art was really cool and the hosts were really nice.

There will be a clothing swap at Table Bakery on Sunday, August 17, 2025.

Concord in order to emphasize sustainability, which is something we both focus on in our creative work, but also to bring together community in a way that requires no exchanging of money,” said Lindsey Cilley of Fat & Habitat.

The organizers want everyone to feel encouraged to show up and share in a love of fashion and sustainability.

“We want the community to grow and for folks to feel welcome whether it’s during this swap or future events we put on. With the help of Chelsea [Annett] from Table, this is another way to bring friends (new and old) together,” Cilley said. “And you get to walk away with new-to-you piece for your wardrobe in time for seasonal changes!”

Table Bakery is located at 5 Eagle Square in Concord.
