November 12, 2025 - Wayland’s recent integration into the MWRA system reflects a broader historical arc: from rural self-reliance to regional interdependence, echoing Greater Boston’s evolving water infrastructure since the 19th century. The Executive Director of the Metropolitan Waterworks Museum, Eric Peterson, will discuss the historical development of one of the nation's earliest water systems and how Wayland’s new connection to it represents not just an infrastructural solution but a continuation of its intertwined history with Boston’s regional water evolution.
About the presenter: While earning a Masters of Museum Studies, Eric volunteered at the newly created Metropolitan Waterworks Museum in Chestnut Hill, MA in 2009 and has worked there ever since. For the past eight years, he has served as the Executive Director of the Waterworks Museum. Committed to strengthening public awareness of the vital importance of history by helping to protect the sites, artifacts and organizations that bring the past into the present, Mr. Peterson currently serves as Chair of the Industrial Museum Professional Affinity Group of the New England Museum Association and is a co-founder of Industrial History New England.
Presented in partnership with the Wayland Museum and Historical Society.
