Today, join Minnesota's favorite storyteller, Doug Ohman to Celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. ***Update! Today's presentation is at the Murray County 4-H Building. Due to construction equipment at a nearby building, plan on parking on the east side of the 4-H Building.***

This program highlights the positive accomplishments, remarkable people, and pivotal events that have made America great, bringing 250 years of heritage to life through Doug's original photography and historical narratives. Join us at Slayton Library to kick off this historic summer anniversary and discover why the American story is worth celebrating. This free presentation is made possible by Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund and the voters of Minnesota.
