MONROE — The Monroe County Museum is hosting a free public presentation next week focused on Michigan’s role in the American Revolution.
The event is set for Thursday, April 16th at 7 p.m. at the museum on South Monroe Street.
The program will explore how communities in Michilimackinac, including British, French Canadian, and Anishnaabek residents, navigated the Revolutionary War, despite being far from the main fighting.
The presentation is part of the United States Semiquincentennial and will be led by Craig Wilson, chief curator for Mackinac State Historic Parks.
The program will run about 45 minutes and will include a question-and-answer session.
The event is free and open to the public, with seating available on a first-come, first-served basis. Light refreshments will be provided.
