Reading of the Declaration of Independence
July 11 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm
DUE TO THE EXTREME HEAT, WE ARE POSTPONING THIS UNTIL NEXT SATURDAY, JULY 11.
Join us as we celebrate 250 years of freedom and independence with a performance of the Star Spangled Banner and a reading of the Declaration of Independence by our colonial costumed reenactors. The Tapestry Historic Dance Ensemble will be demonstrating period dances and there will be free ice cream (while supplies last), and kids (or adults) can try their hand at writing with a quill pen just like Thomas Jefferson used when he penned the Declaration. The Keith House will be open for tours following the reading.
This event is FREE and does not require advanced registration!
