History buffs and curious Delawareans will have a chance to step back in time next month when the Delaware Public Archives hosts its First Saturday Program on July 11, 2026, beginning at 10:30 a.m.
The special event will feature two components: a condensed presentation of Independence or the Bayonet, which takes a close look at the dramatic days that led up to America declaring its independence, followed by a screening of a brand-new documentary that shines a spotlight on Delaware’s significant contribution to the nation’s founding story.
The program offers residents a unique opportunity to learn more about the First State’s place in American Revolutionary history through both live presentation and film.
