As part of Chatham County’s year-long celebration of America’s 250th birthday, the Chatham County Historical Association (CCHA) is hosting an NC History Book Club: Between the Lines, held on the third Saturday of every month in 2026, from 9:30am-10:30am. This monthly book club will explore North Carolina’s rich history through engaging nonfiction. Whether you’re a lifelong history lover or are simply curious about the people and events that shaped our state, join CCHA for conversation and lively discussion.

Our kick-off selection for January 2026 is Farming Dissenters: The Regulator Movement in Piedmont, North Carolina, by Carole Troxler, the little-known story of how a group of North Carolina farmers helped to set the stage for the American Revolution. This month’s event takes place Sat, Jan 17, 9:30am-10:30am at the Chatham County Courthouse and Historical Museum.

All are welcome, and admission is free. To register and for more information, click here. This event takes place indoors. The Courthouse and Historical Museum is ADA-accessible. Free parking is available across the street in front of the Chatham County Government Annex. No pets allowed. This event is part of our Chatham Celebrates America 250 initiative.
