SUMMARY:Outlandish Hillsborough Walking Tour
DESCRIPTION:Beginning in the 4th book of the Outlander series and the 5th season of the hit TV show\, Jamie and Claire Fraser settle in a fictional Scottish community in North Carolina. The story intertwines with that of the Regulator Uprising that took place in and around Hillsborough in the 1770s\, making Hillsborough a natural location for this event.\n\nThe tour will begin at the Hillsborough Visitor Center and will take you along the Frasers’ footsteps to see many of the sites featured within the Outlander series relating to Hillsborough and the Regulator uprising prior to the Revolutionary War.\n\nThis is an in-person walking tour that sometimes crosses uneven terrain. Please plan to be walking or standing for the duration of the event\, wear comfortable walking shoes\, and bring a water bottle (plus your curiosity). \nTickets: https://www.zeffy.com/en-US/ticketing/outlandish-walking-tour–2026

SUMMARY:Book Launch! The Life and Times of Job Berry
DESCRIPTION:Here’s your chance to experience life in Hillsborough in the latter half of the 19th century. Imagine walking by the county courthouse at Churton and King\, watching lawyer and legislator Frederick Strudwick rubbing shoulders with other policy makers of the day. Smell the pungent aroma of tobacco in the nearby warehouse. Stop by Henry Brown’s mercantile shop down the street for some tea or snuff. Listen quietly on the corner to the latest rumblings about the Ku Klux Klan. Pick up the most recent issue of the Hillsborough Recorder for the latest news and gossip. You might make plans to attend Job Berry’s upcoming fair to raise money for the new Freedmen’s School at Churton and Queen. If you’re lucky\, you might hear the girls at the Nash and Kollock School practicing the piano for their upcoming soiree. And at the nearby Eno River\, you could even see Peggy Faribault on her way to help birth a baby. \nYou can experience all this and more in The Life & Times of Job Berry\, a collaborative work of fifteen local authors singing the praises—and the failures—of Hillsborough of the time. \nThis historical biography tells the stories of interesting people from slavery to freedom\, from war to peace\, and from Jim Crow to Civil Rights. You’ll read about politics\, education\, music\, art\, literature\, love\, kidnapping\, murder\, real estate\, commerce\, tragedy\, and hope. Join the authors at St. Matthew’s the last Saturday in September to learn their stories of Hillsborough\, North Carolina\, from the late nineteenth century\, plus events a hundred years later. \nJoin Us… \nSaturday\, September 26\, 2026 \n4:00-5:30 p.m. at St. Matthew’s Episcopal Church Education Building at the intersection of St. Mary’s Road and E. King Street in Hillsborough\, NC \nWriters include: Managing Editor Betty Eidenier\, Jan Irwin\, Janie Morris\, Bryce Little\, Beverly A. Scarlett\, Deirdre Barone\, Christine Benoodt\, Doris Wilson\, Brooks Graebner\, Kate Faherty\, Steve J. Rankin\, Kathie Lynch Brown\, Courtney Soling Smith\, Horace Johnson\, Jr.\, Kelly Arnold.
