SUMMARY:Angel of the House: Unorthodox Victorian Approaches to Life and Love
DESCRIPTION:Thursday July 17\, 2025\, 10-11:30 am\nFollen Church Community Hall\n735 Mass Ave\, Lexington\, MA (side entrance)\nCost: Free\, donations welcome\nPresented by: Amelia Settembre\nAdvance registration requested\n\nJoin Lexington Lyceum intern Amelia Settembre as she explores the norms of Victorian family life\, which relegated women to the private sphere and hid away those who did not conform. She will then discuss how certain members of the Robbins family of East Lexington lived lives that broke these norms. Julia Robbins pursued her own career as an artist and carpet designer and married late. Hannah Maria Robbins\, Julia’s older sister\, who was deaf\, remained with her family her entire life at a time when many families relegated disabled\, mentally ill\, or LGBTQ+ individuals to asylums. Lot Robbins\, the uncle of Julia and Hannah Maria\, was committed to the asylum for the mentally ill that became McLean Hospital.\n\n\n\nWhat made Julia\, Hannah Maria\, and Lot’s lives different from the lives of their peers? And how was their unorthodoxy representative  of greater social attitudes at the time? We invite you to join us in exploring these questions.
