The Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum will be celebrating the Nation’s 250th anniversary on Saturday July 4th with what they are calling “America 250: America’s Ultimate Block Party”.
The event, which will be free to the public begins at 3 p.m. at Union Square Park across from the museum.
The event according to Dr. Ian Hunt, Director of Acquisitions and Special Projects will be a great opportunity for people to gather together and celebrate.
There will be food trucks, a kids and pets parade, a performance by a re-created Civil War band that’s authentic in every detail as well as a patriotic concert performances from Chicago’s premier symphonic brass ensemble.
