Have you ever wondered what life was like, here in Harmony and Zelienople, 250 years ago? We have too. This year we’re going big for America’s 250th Anniversary and transforming History Day, into History Week! On Tuesday June 30th, join us in Historic Harmony for a free event bursting with fun, facts, and food! The Town of Historic Harmony will host authors, historical re-enactments, and family friendly programming to show what life was like in our neck of the woods 250 years ago.
Join the greats like George Washington and march through Harmony Pennsylvania. Together, we’ll explore history in a festive and immersive experience close to home.
