Member Preview of "Banners of Liberty: An Exhibition of Original Revolutionary War Flags"

Museum Members are invited to join us on Friday, April 18, for a Members-only preview of our new special exhibition, Banners of Liberty: An Exhibition of Original Revolutionary War Flags. Members can enjoy refreshments in our Member lounge as well as timed access to the exhibition before it opens to the public on Saturday, April 19, 2025. Make your reservation today! 

The Museum’s upcoming exhibition, Banners of Liberty: An Exhibition of Original Revolutionary War Flags, will mark the 250th anniversary of the beginning of the Revolutionary War and the creation of the United States Armed Forces (Army, Navy, and Marine Corps) with a special exhibition in the Museum’s first-floor Patriots Gallery, on view until August 10, 2025. Of the hundreds of flags made and carried in the Revolutionary War (1775-1783) by the Continental Army and American militia, only about 30 are known to survive. Working with institutional and private lenders, the Museum will assemble and display more than a dozen original flags that were carried in military campaigns stretching from northern New England to South Carolina. This exhibition will feature the largest gathering of rare and significant Revolutionary War flags in more than two centuries.
