SUMMARY:2026 Spring Speaker Series | Battle of Ridgefield: Benedict Arnold\, the Patriot Militia and the Surprising 1777 Battle that Galvanized Revolutionary Connecticut
DESCRIPTION:Renowned historian Keith Marshall Jones III offers the most comprehensive and compelling account of the Battle of Ridgefield to date. Though a clear British victory\, the Battle of Ridgefield’s consequences include the ascendance of Benedict Arnold\, freeing up local militia units to participate at the Battle of Saratoga and tightening the screw on Connecticut Loyalists. \nCo-presented by the Ridgefield Historical Society. \n  \nAbout the Speaker \nWith a Harvard MBA and a career in advertising and promotion over three decades\, Keith Marshall Jones III became the founding president of the Ridgefield Historical Society in CT and a hands-on local historian. His passion for the American Revolution led to five years behind musket and sword as a living historian in the re-enacted Fifth Connecticut Regiment of the Continental Line. Keith has been honored by the Connecticut General Assembly for his work on reenactments and marking southwestern Connecticut’s segment of the 680-mile Washington-Rochambeau Revolutionary Route. His publications include Congress as My Government: Chief Justice John Marshall in the American Revolution (1775 – 1781)\, The Farms of Farmingville: A Two-century History of Twenty-three Ridgefield\, Connecticut Farmhouses and the People Who Gave Them Life\, John Laurance: The Immigrant Founding Father America Never Knew\, and The Battle of Ridgefield: Benedict Arnold\, the Patriot Militia\, and the Surprising Battle that Galvanized Revolutionary Connecticut. More than twenty years in the works\, his latest publication defines in unsurpassed detail the April 1777 Battle of Ridgefield. \n  \n\nAbout the 2026 Spring Speaker Series – Perspectives on Revolution \nAs the United States marks 250 years\, join the Fairfield Museum for a special series that rediscovers the American Revolution through bold new perspectives. The series explores the era not as a single\, unified story—but as a complex\, contested\, and transformative moment seen through many eyes. Renowned historians and authors will share new discoveries and spark conversation about how the Revolution continues to shape American identity\, ideals\, and contradictions today. \n  \nAdditional Lectures in the Series: \nFebruary 8 | Remember Liss: A New American Founding Figure \nMarch 1 | The Loyalist Legacy \n  \nRegistration is required. $15 for Members; $20 for Non-Members; $45 for the series for Members; $55 for Non-Members. \n  \n\nTicketing Policy \n\nNo refunds will be given unless the program is cancelled by the Fairfield Museum.\nWe do not pro-rate fees for missed days of the series.\n\n

SUMMARY:The Three Towns Bus Tour
DESCRIPTION:From its earliest days\, Fairfield was a sprawling town. Stretching from the Saugatuck River in the west to what is now Bridgeport’s Park Avenue in the east\, and northward to the hills of Redding\, Fairfield’s original bounds encompassed a vast and dynamic region. With a flourishing population\, new parishes and religious beliefs took root and distant communities began to forge their own paths. Thus emerged the neighboring towns of Redding\, Westport\, Weston\, and Easton—shaped from Fairfield lands. Join us for a special bus tour to discover the unique stories found in Fairfield\, Weston\, and Easton and explore the shared history among all three towns. \nCo-presented by Weston History & Culture Center and Historical Society of Easton. \nRegistration is required. $80 per person.  \n  \nProgram Details: \n\nPre-registration is required—no drop-ins will be allowed because space is very limited.\nThe bus tour is approximately 4 hours long.\nWe will make 3 stops where we will see specific sites along the way. Stops include: c. 1750 Ogden House; Weston History and Culture Center; and Easton Congregational Church & Staples Academy.\nLight refreshments will be available at select stops during the bus tour.\nWe will depart promptly at 10 AM. Please arrive at the Fairfield Museum (370 Beach Rd. Fairfield\, CT) at least 30 minutes in advance in order to secure a parking spot.\nParking is available at the Fairfield Museum.\nCheck in at the Fairfield Museum lobby.\nWhen purchasing admission\, you will NOT receive a physical ticket. All you need to do at check-in is provide your name.\nThis program is recommended for adults.\nPlease note that this bus does not have wheelchair accessibility.\nA restroom will be available on the bus.\nPlease bring water with you.\nPlease dress for the weather and wear comfortable shoes.
