Organ Tour
February 16 @ 12:30 pm – 1:30 pm
February is a relatively calm month, musically speaking, when it seems timely to set up a tour of our charming 1890 Woodberry & Harris tracker organ. Did you know that our little organ is registered in the Pipe Organ Database of the Organ Historical Society? Did you know that our organ was fully mechanical until electricity came down Main Street around 1920, and the “hand pump” was replaced by a motorized turbine to generate “wind”? Did you know we had a major refurbishment of our organ in 2014, partly funded by a Community Preservation Grant?
If you’d like to take a little tour backstage in the “Middleboro UU Organ Chambers,” this is your chance! Mark your calendar for February 16 at 12:30, and I’ll meet you on the chancel.
