Revolutionary Printing

Join us on the Fourth of July for Revolutionary Printing—a free, family-friendly UVA250 celebration of the materials, crafts, and stories of the founding era.

Print your own copy of the Declaration of Independence, and view demonstrations of handmaking paper and mixing iron gall ink. Sign a giant copy of the Declaration, hear music of the American Revolution, or make a printer's hat. Create a custom silhouette, beadwork, sewing sampler, or screen print a keepsake to take home. History you can hold!
