Presidents Day Weekend at the Museum of the American Revolution

Visit the Museum of the American Revolution this President’s Day Weekend to explore the life, leadership, and legacy of the nation’s first president, George Washington. Learn about the diverse range of people who he interacted with during Presidents Day Weekend from Feb. 18-20. Throughout the weekend, guests of all ages are invited to explore this new special exhibition, participate in family-friendly crafts and activities, discover surprising stories in our galleries, and more.

Also on exhibition is “Black Founders: The Forten Family of Philadelphia.” In this exhibit, visitors can explore the lives of James Forten and his descendants as they navigated cross-racial relationships in Philadelphia during the American Revolution to become leaders in the abolition and women’s suffrage movements.
