It's Revolutionary: They Also Served -- a friends and family event suitable for adults and children

Celebrate the Semiquincentennial of the Declaration of Independence and the founding of the United States by hearing about the commonly known as well as the untold and unexplored stories of the over 400 individuals from Sharon who served as members of the militia or soldiers in the Continental Army during the  Revolutionary War.

This event will include a presentation and discussion as well as a chance to view related exhibits. There will also be time for a  creative activity -- an “in studio opportunity” to create items for the “Reflections on the Revolution: A Call to All”  Exhibition at 16 High Street in December.  This show  will display the works  of those  who have chosen to express, in their preferred medium, their views of the Revolutionary events and figures.  We are seeking  visual art, photography, poetry,  prose, music, videography, crafts, or any combination of these  or other expressive techniques.  Contributor's  work will be documented and digitally preserved for the benefit of future historians and history lovers. Submissions will be accepted until October 31.

The Exhbits can also be viewed during our open  hours: 

2 - 4   Fridays

1 - 4   Saturdays

3 - 5    Sundays
