SUMMARY:Virginia Declaration of Rights
DESCRIPTION:The Virginia Declaration of Rights was the inspiration for part of the Declaration of Independence. Virginia’s Fifth Revolutionary Convention created a committee to produce a declaration of rights following a resolution passed on May 15\, 1776 for Virginia to declare independence at the Second Continental Congress. Written largely by George Mason\, the document was adopted unanimously by the Convention on June 12\, 1776.   \nJoin the Frontier Culture Museum as we discuss the documents that influenced\, and were influenced by\, the Virginia Declaration of Rights. Our talented tailors and seamstresses will be making the first Virginia flag of the Revolution. Try your hand at writing an important 18th century document with penmanship lessons.   \nThis is a general admission event and is included in the annual pass.

SUMMARY:Independence Day Celebration
DESCRIPTION:In 1809\, the Staunton Eagle recorded Independence Day as “ About 50 gentlemen and a number of ladies…partook of a plain Barbecue\, where none but Domestic productions were eaten…In short\, the whole afternoon was spend with a good humor\, harmony\, and joy\, which the fourth of July ought always to inspire into the bosoms of Americans.”   \nLet the Frontier Culture Museum provide you and your family with an opportunity to find good humor and joy with our pay-what-you-will celebration of the 250th Anniversary of Independence Day! Starting at 9 am and lasting all day\, we’ll be making Election Cake\, games of all kinds\, an audience participation required 19th century Civics Bee\, and of course\, a reading of the Declaration of Independence!  \n  \nHow well do you remember your civics classes in school? Can you name the two presidents who died on July 4th\, 1826\, 50 years after signing the Declaration of Independence? Come test your knowledge in our 19th century Civics Bee in our 1840 schoolhouse! Audience participation is required in this reconstruction of a historical civics lesson. 11:30\, 1:30\, 2:30\, 3:30  \nDid you know that the Declaration of Independence was not the first document expressing discontent with English rulers to be written by Virginians? Nathaniel Bacon wrote the Declaration of the People of Virginia on July 30\, 1676 expressing discontent with Royal Governor William Berkeley\, sparking Bacon’s Rebellion. Come here the Declaration of the People read on our English farm at 11 and 3.   \nCome hear the Declaration of Independence read from the porch of our patriotically festooned 1820’s house.   \n  \n
