Salons at Stowe: America 250

As the United States approaches its 250th anniversary, we have an opportunity to reflect on the stories, struggles, and ideals that have shaped our nation. Join the Stowe Center for Literary Activism for a community conversation about the history of America’s founding, the voices that have too often been left out of that story, and the work of building a more just future.
This gathering invites neighbors into conversation, reflection, and community connection in a welcoming space where dialogue can spark understanding and action. Together, we’ll explore what America250 means, how the past continues to shape the present, and what responsibilities we share as we imagine the next chapter of our collective story.
Come be in community, engage with others, and help turn conversation into action.
