Don’t miss your opportunity to explore our Revolutionary past at the Revolutionary Germantown Festival on Saturday, October 5th, 10am to 4pm, rain or shine. Throughout the day, explore the lives and experiences of people from the past, engaging with re-enactors, first-person interpreters and trying your hand at 18th century crafts. Family friendly activities will be available with the sites of Historic Germantown along with tours and a food court.
Two memorials will help mark the lives lost to violence both long ago and today. At 12:15 pm, there will be a moment of commemoration for those who died during the Battle of Germantown. At 3:45 pm there will be a moment of remembrance for those lost to gun violence in Philadelphia in 2024.
