SUMMARY:The Regulator Movement and the Revolution in the North Carolina Backcountry
DESCRIPTION:Join the Chatham County Historical Association for The Regulator Movement and the Revolution in the North Carolina Backcountry on Sun\, Mar 1\, 2pm-3:30pm. Carole Troxler\, Professor Emerita at Elon University\, will discuss the years leading up to the American Revolution\, in which yeoman farmers in North Carolina’s Piedmont farmland became increasingly angry about the corruption and dishonesty among the colonial officials who collected their taxes and enforced their laws. A wave of popular support for stricter regulation of these laws slowly spread throughout the Piedmont\, resulting in years of minor clashes between the farmer ‘Regulators’ and the royal militia. Although the militia finally defeated the Regulators at the Battle of Alamance in 1771\, the seeds of revolt were planted. This little-known rebellion in North Carolina highlighted the growing discontent among American colonists with colonial rule and helped set the stage for the American Revolution. \nThis event takes place indoors. The Chatham County Historic Courthouse and Museum is ADA-accessible. No pets allowed. Please leave your furry friends at home. Free parking is available behind the courthouse and along Hillsboro Street. \nThis event is part of our Chatham Celebrates America 250 initiative. See more America 250 events.

SUMMARY:The American Revolution: Life on the Home Front in Chatham County
DESCRIPTION:Join the Chatham County Historical Association for The American Revolution: Life on the Home Front in Chatham County on Sun\, Nov 2\, 2pm-3:30pm at the Chatham County Historic Courthouse and Museum. \nAs we approach the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution\, most folks think first about the battles that took place during that war.

He is a writer and journalist with a fierce interest and deep knowledge of the American Revolution and will explain what life was like in Chatham County for these “other revolutionaries” on the home front during the seven long years of war. \nAll are welcome to attend this free event. This event takes place indoors. The historic courthouse meets federal ADA requirements. No pets allowed. Please leave your furry friends at home. Free parking is available across the street at the new Chatham County Justice Center. \nThis event is part of our Chatham Celebrates America 250 initiative. See more America 250 events.

SUMMARY:Documentary Screening - The Courthouse
DESCRIPTION:See the Emmy-nominated documentary The Courthouse at the Chatham County Courthouse and Historical Museum Sat\, Mar 22\, 7:30pm-8:30pm. PBS North Carolina\, in partnership with Haw River Films\, will host a special screening of The Courthouse\, an Emmy-nominated half-hour documentary chronicling the destruction and reconstruction of Pittsboro’s historic courthouse and its rich cultural history. The event will take place on the 15th anniversary of the fire in the historic courthouse\, offering a poignant setting to reflect on the resilience of the Pittsboro community. \nProduced and directed by award-winning local filmmaker Michael C. O’Connell\, The Courthouse is a co-production between PBS North Carolina and Haw River Films.
