Unfolding: Early American Accounts from Liberty Hall, is a major exhibition exploring how letters, ledgers, maps, and manuscripts shaped everyday life in early America. Drawn from the collections of Kean Galleries and Collections and Liberty Hall Museum, the exhibition commemorates America's 250th anniversary through rare and fascinating archival materials.

On the occasion of the 250th anniversary of the United States Declaration of Independence, we are reminded of the role that paper played in shaping our early democracy. Unfolding considers how paper functioned in the eighteenth-century, transferring knowledge and conveying social obligations; and the paper record itself, as we interrogate archival silences in search of untold stories.

Unfolding: Early American Accounts from Liberty Hall will be on view through December 4, 2026. The Liberty Hall Academic Center Gallery, in the Liberty Hall Academic Center, is open to the public Monday through Friday 10AM-4PM and Saturday 10AM-3PM.
