This program\, which included essay contests\, holiday ceremonies\, child fairs\, and musical offerings became known as Children’s Hours. Old South Lectures for Young People were also established in the summer of 1883 “as a means of promoting a more serious and intelligent attention to historical studies\, especially studies in American history among the young people in Boston.” Today\, the Old South Meeting House continues to educate the young people of Boston and remember Mary Hemenway’s mission through our Family Hours programming.
