Did you know that Connecticut has its own Declaration of Independence? Did you know that its timing was unique to the larger events going on in June of 1776 and reflected the quickly changing sentiments of the day. The Connecticut Courant and the pamphlet “Common Sense” played a significant role in shaping the push for independence in Connecticut.

This is the second in a series of three presented by Matthew Warshauer, a professor of history at Central Connecticut State University.  All three series are funded by Pat Moran and sponsored by the Avon Historical Society, Avon Library, and Avon Senior Center.

Please register for each event separately.

THIS EVENT WILL BE HELD AT THE WEST AVON CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH.
