SUMMARY:A Celebration of the Third Provincial Congress: Transforming Visions of Freedom into Reality
DESCRIPTION:On September 6\, 2025 Hillsborough\, NC will host “A Celebration of the Third Provincial Congress: Transforming Visions of Freedom in Reality.” This will be a full-day event commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Third Provincial Congress that was held in Hillsborough\, NC from August 20 to September 10\, 1775. \nTo recognize this momentous occasion\, the Third Provincial Congress 250 committee is will present a series of engaging programs including: \n\nAcademic speakers discussing the proceedings of the assembly\, the short and long-term legacy of the Congress\, and the experiences of marginalized communities in regard to how they would have internalized the ideas and issues raised as well as how they would have interacted with the delegates at the Congress.\nA dramatization featuring a multimedia presentation with imagery\, narration\, and music showcasing the story and significance of the Third Provincial Congress\, followed by costumed interpreters delivering some iconic resolutions and speeches from the Congress.\nA colonial market featuring community groups\, museums\, vendors\, children’s activities\, and costumed interpreters\n\nThe Third Provincial Congress was one of the most important steps in North Carolina’s path to declaring independence in 1776 and its ongoing journey toward realizing a vision of freedom. Yet\, few people in North Carolina are aware not only of this momentous event\, but also of the major role that Hillsborough played during the Revolutionary War period. (And\, it was held on the lot where the Museum is currently located).
