Independence Day Celebration

Join Meadowcroft for an Independence Day celebration!

Step into the past and experience the roots of American history with a day full of festive fun at Meadowcroft’s 18th-century frontier trading post and 19th-century rural village. Enjoy hands-on historical demonstrations, try your hand at traditional games, and discover how early Americans lived, worked, and celebrated.

Make it a Fourth of July to remember with family, friends, and timeless traditions. Don’t forget to explore the Meadowcroft Rockshelter—one of North America’s oldest known sites of human habitation—for a truly one-of-a-kind journey through the ages.

This program is part of the Heinz History Center’s America 101 initiative.
