Event Details
Join Cliveden's Education Director Carolyn Wallace to explore the site's new installation focused on the 18th century and the exhibit "Procuring Liberty in the Emerging Nation." The North American continent became the site of war beginning in the 1750s and continued throughout the next three decades. The construction of Cliveden occurred during this violent time. A growing household of over twenty people at Cliveden reshaped their identities and looked to retain or procure their liberty at a time when discussions of freedom and independence were in everyone’s thoughts. This exhibit explores their experiences and struggles as a new nation formed.
