Overview
The State Library is excited to invite you to join us for a special event featuring our copy of the Declaration of Independence, printed in Salem on July 17, 1776. We will also be marking the opening of our new exhibit Raising the Alarm: Revolutionary Broadsides at the State Library. Though the exhibit features facsimiles of our collection items, the originals will be pulled from storage from this event so visitors can see them up close.
This event is free and open to the public; stop by the State Library between 11:00 and 1:00 to see these stirring documents on display as the country approaches its 250th birthday. Reach out to us at special.collections@mass.gov with any questions.
