MA Historical Society – Empire and Its Discontent


December 1-2, 2023 – Marked the 260th anniversary of the Treaty of Paris that ended the Seven Years’ War and the 250th anniversary of the Boston Tea Party.

This conference examined the British empire at its moment of great triumph, in 1763, with its enemies defeated and its control spreading from India to the Mississippi; and again at 1773, with its control beginning to slip away in North America as a radical mobilization began against imperial power.

Saturday, November 4 and Sunday, November 5, 2023 – ‘Evaporate’ was an aqueous-themed performance art festival inspired by the exhibition and the unique history and architecture of the Waterworks Museum.

Organized by Mobius member Heather Kapplow, the performances activated the museum’s exhibition halls, grounds, and the nearby reservoir, flowing through these spaces in a quick rush, as the city’s water once flowed through these same spaces, and then dissipating just as quickly.
