Description

In recognition of Constitution Day, Distinguished Professor of American History Dr. Robert Watson presented America 250: The Story of the Declaration of Independence and the Founding of the Nation.

Dr. Watson narrated a one-hour event describing the American Revolution, drafting of the Declaration of Independence, and forging of the nation, sharing little-known stories and the inspired work of the Founders who forged an entirely new experiment in popular government, and did so against all odds. The program included poems, songs, and readings, by our Lynn Drama and Lynn University Conservatory of Music students, all introduced by Dr. Watson, who also offered commentary to tie everything together to tell the story of the birth of the United States as well as the aspirational goals for the new republic and unfinished work of the American experiment.

This event was open to the community.

Time and Date: Sept.17, 2025, 12-1:30 p.m.

Location: Amarnick-Goldstein Concert Hall
