In celebration of the United States of America's 250th birthday, we are bringing exciting new pop-up exhibits from our friends at The Gilder Lehrman Collection to the White Bear Lake Area!
"Freedom: The History of Us" Pop-Up Exhibit
Since 1776, when the United States declared independence from Great Britain, the idea of freedom and our understanding of its implications have changed dramatically. Drawing on materials from the Gilder Lehrman Collection, this exhibition traces the evolving concept of freedom from the founding era to the election of Barack Obama. Among the highlights are a rare 1776 printing of the Declaration of Independence, a printed draft and the official copy of the US Constitution, Lincoln’s handwritten notes for speeches, and letters by leading figures such as Frederick Douglass, Susan B. Anthony, Martin Luther King Jr., and more.
This pop-up exhibit is free to attend at the White Bear Lake Armory.
