In 2026, the United States will commemorate 250 years since the signing of the Declaration of Independence. While the 1976 bicentennial focused on celebrating the nation’s founding, this semiquincentennial will look at the bigger picture of the American experience. This commemoration will explore Indiana's role in the nation’s history, from the actions leading to the revolutionary period until today.

​

Join us throughout 2026 as we honor this historic milestone with events, experiences, and celebrations right here in Daviess County. We invite you, your family, and friends to take part in remembering our past, celebrating our present, and shaping our future—together.
