Sunday 1PM-4PM.  FREE admission.  In 1976 America was set to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence – and Orangetown was ready. With significant revolutionary roots – from the signing of the Orangetown Resolutions\, Washington’s headquarters at the DeWint House\, Molly Sneden’s ferry\, Maj. John Andre’s trial and hanging to Sir Guy Carlton’s tribute to the new republic- Orangetown was were where history happened. The Bicentennial provided Americans with a way to honor the past and prepare for the future while taking a break form the Vietnam War Watergate scandal and cultural upheavals of the previous decade. Hopes and dreams for a better society suffered many setbacks in the 70’s\, but the American dream continued.  As we prepare for the nation’s Semiquincentennial – the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 2026\, looking back From Democracy to Disco can serve as a blueprint for the future. \nFREE admission.  CLICK HERE for more information.
