Declaring Independence 

Then and Now

Sun Jul 4th 7:00pm - 8:00pm

Buckman Tavern/Visitors Center Lawn, 1 Bedford St.

The Declaration of Independence was just one of many written acts of rebellion by the American people in 1776. Across the colonies, towns debated what freedom meant to them, and grappled with the grievances aired in the official Declaration. What did the words in the final document mean to them, and how did they react?

Our first online Quilt Show will be unveiled July 4, 2021 and will feature all Founder's Squares. 

Founders are those who donate to LexSeeHer before June 11, 2021.

Master Gardener Shelly Henderson and moderator Ashley Rooney will describe their work and some of the plants that can withstand busy streets.
