What does “We hold these truths to be self-evident” mean to you? The Museum of the American Revolution will host a printing workshop with Common Press for visitors to learn how printing presses were used to spread the word about independence. Come print your own one-word response on a portable printing press using wood type, in honor of the 250th birthday of the first printing of these words in Philadelphia in 1776.
