Enjoy an engaging performance hosted by the Westford Historical Society\, followed by spirited period music provided by the Prescott Battalion Fife and Drum Corps. \nDeclaring Independence: Then & Now brings to life the Declaration of Independence as a forum for civic dialogue and engagement through a forty-minute performance and ensuing moderated community conversation. The script\, written by public historian Mary B. Fuhrer\, utilizes primary source material researched by citizen historians to reveal how individuals within Massachusetts towns debated and responded to the question of independence in the spring and summer of 1776\, followed by an annotated reading of the Declaration itself. \nIn commemoration of the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence\, 15 community-hosted performances are scheduled across the Freedom’s Way National Heritage Area during the spring and summer of 2026. Find a performance near you! \nDeclaring Independence: Then & Now is supported\, in part\, by the Massachusetts Society of the Cincinnati URL:https://freedomsway.org/event/declaring-independence-westford/ LOCATION:Westford Historical Society & Museum\, 2 Boston Road\, Westford\, MA\, 01886\, United States CATEGORIES:Declaring Independence: Then & Now,Performances ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://freedomsway.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/DI-2026_Stacked-Logo-for-Events.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20260719T130000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20260719T160000 DTSTAMP:20260605T030810 CREATED:20240425T200308Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260429T162829Z UID:37037-1784466000-1784476800@freedomsway.org SUMMARY:1776 and Beyond DESCRIPTION:  \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n This event explores our region’s revolutionary past!
