Moments That Made US

Print on demand exhibition for community organizations

On July 4, 2026, the nation will mark the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. As community organizations look to commemorate this milestone, we are pleased to share a free, customizable, print-on-demand exhibition developed by partners in Western states. Moments That Made US explores the ideals at the heart of the Declaration of Independence through moments in our history that have defined their meaning. It does so in a user-friendly format that organizations can adapt, afford, and make their own throughout 2026.

This commemoration is a chance for every community, large or small, to come together with a shared purpose in reflecting on the past and building stronger, more connected communities in the future. Moments That Made US will ensure that every interested institution can access compelling content in 2026.
