Joel Farkas presents The Declaration of Independence: The Whole Story In-Person
Masks are encouraged, but not required during the program.
Historian Joel Farkas will provide a fascinating presentation on The Declaration of Independence: The Whole Story.
The document...the day...the journey...From conception to celebration (and a whole lot of INDEPENDENCE in between)
From the Magna Carta (1215) to the English Bill of Rights (1689), to the French and Indian War (1754-1763) to the Declaration of Independence, to the Revolutionary War to the French Revolution to Napoleon to the War of 1812, to Independence Day today.
(Fasten your saddles and seatbelts. This is going to be quite a ride!)
