Create your own maps in celebration of the 250th anniversary of the United States. Find inspiration in maps from the colonial period and the first years of independence and discover more about early American cartography from Geography and Map Division staff. Each Family Day includes a creative activity, connections to Library of Congress collections, a chance to talk to staff experts, and a guide to using Library resources at home.
Activities will be held on the mezzanine level of the Jefferson Building. The event is free, but passes are required.
