Film Screening, "1776"

Film Screening at the Walpole Town Library. Join us for a special screening of 1776, the acclaimed musical film that brings the passion, debate, and drama of America’s founding to life. Follow John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, and the other delegates of the Continental Congress as they struggle to declare independence and change the course of history.

This event is made possible by New Hampshire Humanities, in partnership with NHPBS, with additional support provided by Cogswell Benevolent Trust.
