In 2026, Heritage Village will proudly commemorate its 50th anniversary, coinciding with America’s 250th celebration. This is a significant milestone, as it marks 50 years since the 1976 Bicentennial movement, which inspired the creation of numerous historical organizations and societies, along with the establishment of open-air museums like Heritage Village throughout the nation!
Next year, Heritage Village will honor both milestones through a variety of unique programs, exhibits, and events that reflect this remarkable journey. We invite you to join us in celebrating this momentous occasion!
