Revolutionary Things: Objects from the Collection

Designed to coincide with the nation’s 250th anniversary in 2026, this special exhibit brings together a wide range of objects that testify to Pennsylvania’s outsized role in the American Revolution, as well as its subsequent commemoration of this turning point period in both Pennsylvania and American history. Some of the objects on display have a documented history of use from that revolutionary time and are very rare. Others reflect the ways in which later generations of Pennsylvanians remembered, imagined, and celebrated the nation’s founding and the Keystone State’s central role in it. *The museum is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays
