Adams Presidential Center
About
Adams Presidential Center is a Quincy nonprofit that preserves and shares the legacy of John, Abigail, John Quincy and Louisa Catherine Adams. It focuses on the ideals of citizenship and selfless public service that the family embodied, connecting their example to present-day civic life. The center’s stated aim is to invite every American to draw inspiration from the Adamses’ story and take up their own responsibility to participate in democracy.
Its programming mixes public events with education. Its calendar has included an Adams speaker series presented with Revolutionary Spaces and the GBH Forum Network, a program at the LBJ Presidential Library with Thomas Jefferson’s Monticello on Adams and Jefferson for the Declaration of Independence’s 250th anniversary, and Adams History Trivia at Break Rock Brewing in Marina Bay.
