Consistently rated the best local scavenger hunt since 2016!
Puzzling Adventures are a cross between a scavenger hunt, an adventure race, and an informative self-guided walking tour. Each adventure consists of a series of locations that you are guided to where you are required to answer a question or solve a puzzle to receive your next instruction. Compete as a group, individually or create multiple teams and race each other. Almost all of our adventures are designed to be wheelchair and stroller friendly and all are carefully crafted to be entertaining and informative with something to appeal to all ages. Complete the adventure as quickly as possible to win first place or take your time and enjoy the journey. Price is per team, not per person. Groups can be any size, but small groups are recommended for the best experience.

The William L. Clements Library is pleased to announce a forthcoming exhibition in recognition of the 250th Anniversary of the military hostilities that began the American Revolutionary War. The Battles of Lexington and Concord are firmly established in American memory as the culmination of a range of governmental, political, economic, and social tensions that amplified in the decade leading up to 1775. In this exhibit, visitors will have the opportunity to see original historical manuscript letters, documents, newspapers, and artwork that reveal aspects of the bloody work of Empire and individual alike in April 1775.
Among the items on display will be Commander in Chief of the British Army, General Thomas Gage's draft orders for the Concord Expedition, April 18, 1775; a bundle of letters collected by former Sons of Liberty supporter Dr. Benjamin Church, which he secretly turned over to British Army intelligence; letters by Silas Deane, John Hancock, and Rachel Revere; and much more.
Open weekdays from 12-4 pm.
