SUMMARY:July 4th at the History Center
DESCRIPTION:What better place to spend your July 4th festivities then immersed in American history at the History Center Museum! View the brand new “Revolutionary York” exhibit in the Brougher Gallery and explore our main gallery space with our American Revolution scavenger hunt. \nAdmission for the day is $10 for adults and $5 for students\, free for members to visit. \n9 AM – 1 PM Operating hours will correspond with the Cultural Fair across from the History Center Museum. \nPlease note the Fire Museum and Agricultural and Industrial Museum are both closed on July 4. Open sites include the History Center Museum and the Colonial Courthouse. \nAbout Revolutionary York:\nWhen British forces seized Philadelphia in 1777\, America’s leaders fled to York\, and a frontier town of 1\,800 became the nation’s capital. Revolutionary York\, on view July 2026 through December 2028\, brings that extraordinary chapter to life. Explore how Congress adopted the Articles of Confederation and secured French support that turned the tide of war\, and how the Revolution was experienced by the full range of people who called York County home. As we mark 250 years of independence\, this exhibit asks what those founding ideals mean to us today. \nVisit our Revolutionary York page here to learn more about the exhibit. \n
