On Saturday July 15th, at 11am the Lake Winnipesaukee Museum will host a lecture titled "Child Labor in New England" featuring Robert Macieski.

Macieski will lecture on child labor in New England in the early twentieth century. He will explore the various occupations children worked, as newsies, in textiles, scavenging, doing industrial homework, and as sardine cutters and packers. We will do this by examining the photography of Lewis W. Hine, who worked for the National Child Labor Committee and created a vast archive of photographs of children at work.

This event is free for all Lake Winnipesaukee Historical Society members, for non-members there is a $5 fee. We are located on Route 3 in Weirs Beach, next to Funspot. Please RSVP to 366-5950, or email info@lwhs.us
