America250 at Marion Public Library
Our nation is approaching a landmark milestone, the 250th anniversary of the signing of the United States Declaration of Independence, which will be celebrated on July 4, 2026. The nationwide initiative known as America250 aims to engage every community in reflecting on the people, events, and ideals that have shaped our country.
At Marion Public Library, this effort presents a special opportunity for programs, partnerships, and events that highlight America’s history and spirit. Together, we’ll honor the past, engage with our present, and invest in our future as we commemorate this momentous occasion.
