SUMMARY:America at 250 Special Exhibits
DESCRIPTION:Commemorate America at 250 with three special exhibits highlighting the Declaration of Independence\, Kansas\, and the last major commemoration of America’s founding. Experience these special exhibits starting Feb. 16\, on display in the Elizabeth Dole Gallery & Reading Room. \nDeclaration 1776: The Big Bang of Modern Democracy uses primary sources to illustrate how Americans and people across the world have been inspired by the Declaration of Independence in their pursuit of equality and self-determination. This special exhibit was developed by the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History. \nSpirit of ’76 features original artifacts from the Dole Archives that highlight the 1976 Bicentennial celebrations\, which commemorated 200 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence. \nKansas in 1776 provides insight into what the Kansas landscape looked like while the Founding Fathers penned the Declaration of Independence in 1776. This special exhibit was developed by Humanities Kansas. \n  \n \nThis exhibit is presented in partnership with Humanities Kansas
