Reading of Declaration of Independence

Join the community as America comes together to read the Declaration of Independence. All over the United States in honor of America’s 250th people are getting together to read the Declaration of Independence as one. For us in Wethersfield and the East Coast that means 6pm.

Meet friends and neighbors at the Keeney Center, 200 Main Street for a guided walking tour to the Cove Warehouse. Three tours leaving between 5:00pm – 5:20pm. At the Cove Warehouse the Declaration of Independence will be read aloud.
