The foundation of Discover West Concord Day is the annual birthday bash for Debra’s Natural Gourmet. “The party we threw after our first year of business was a big hit – with vendors partner-ing with us to give away food, product samples, and to do live demonstrations,” said Debra Stark, founder of the beloved neighborhood store. “It was so much fun that we have thrown a party again every year for 30 years. All great parties involve friends – so we invited our neighbors in West Concord to join in the fun, and Discover West Concord Day was born!”

    Concord Center takes justifiable pride in its history, but today great things are happening in West Concord. Innovation and self-reliance are nothing new on the west side of Route 2; they’ve defined the community for centuries.

    Established for Social & Mutual Improvement: The Concord Lyceum

    The Lyceum Movement started in New England in 1826, when educator and scientist Josiah Holbrook founded the first lyceum in Millbury, Massachusetts. Inspired by the classical Lykeios (Λύκειος) in Ancient Greece, where Aristotle taught, the movement was created to bring education to ordinary people through lectures, debates, and readings. Lyceums quickly spread across New England, fostering education, self-improvement, and civic engagement, and many towns soon formed lyceums of their own, including Boston in 1829 and Salem in 1830. By the 1830s, there were Lyceums across the country.
