Taste of Lexington is a joint effort between the Lexington Mavens & Lexington Retailers Association, ....and you! You are where the magic happens. When you commit to shopping and dining in Lexington...
The 250th anniversary of the American Revolution has prompted locals to revisit and reconsider our town landmarks. Bare fields and unassuming streetcorners hold stories that only the most ardent history lovers remember, some marked with worn signs and others nearly lost to time. Others teem with tour guides and attract visitors from near and far. Steven Edson’s photography of these modern Revolutionary locations, currently on display at Munroe Tavern urges the public to reconsider the spaces they drive by and inhabit every day. Join the artist for a discussion of this project, our relationship with the historical landscape around us, and further images from this collection.

On December 13, 1773, three days before the Boston Tea Party, the Lexington Town Meeting concluded a multi-day debate with a resolution to stop purchasing or drinking imported British tea. The crowd spilled out onto the common behind the meeting house and made a bonfire, throwing the entire town's supply of tea into it.
