Please join us for a day of programs and events to mark the 250th anniversary of the year in which the Declaration of Independence was signed. Stretching along Main Street from the Town Offices to the Mission House, activities will include a quartermaster’s tent displaying the kinds of things the army requisitioned from townspeople; a presentation on 18th century foraging and food by a local historian, and an exhibit of 18th century artifacts from the collections of the Stockbridge Library Museum & Archives and Bidwell House. Chat with reenactors; visit a tavern set-up at the Mission House, and learn about life in the army and on the home front during the American Revolution. Special programming includes a visit from Knox’s Noble Train of Artillery featuring costumed educators from Fort Ticonderoga, a non-firing reproduction cannon, and two (friendly) oxen; and a presentation by two Mohican veterans discussing the role their ancestors played in the Revolution and the importance of military service in their community.
