Ohio & The Revolution
A quarterly webinar series exploring the history of Ohio at the time of the American Revolution
What was happening in and around the Ohio Country about 250 years ago?
With the 250th anniversary of the United States upon us in 2026, this recorded quarterly webinar series will feature diverse perspectives about what the future state of Ohio looked like and what was happening here in Ohio during the lead up to the United States declaring its independence from Britain in 1776 and beyond. Help us “spill the tea” on the Revolution from a decidedly Ohio-centric perspective.
