The vision of Ben Golueke (Mt Airy Liquors) and Chris Coleman (Mt Airy Eye Care) is what brought this amazing event to Mt Airy! It is designed to be a family friendly atmosphere with live music every year. A place to pitch a blanket along with a cooler of beverages, and celebrate our country's independence with our Mt Airy neighbors. An annual event our kids will look forward to and have lasting memories of.
We sincerely hope to bring our wonderful community together through this event and thank our incredible sponsors who are helping to make this vision a reality.\

The Futures Exhibit at the newly reopened Arts and Industries Building is also worth a look. While you’re there, be sure to dive into the Hirshhorn (just next door) to see the excellent Laura Anderson exhibit. We did both a few weeks ago and they were pretty much empty. And, as always, take a look at our Summer Calendar to see the full list of seasonal events.
Also note that the National Archives underwent a significant renovation about 10 years ago. If that school group visit back in the 1990s is the last time you were there, you should duck in on the next rainy day.
