Clermont State Historic Site continues its celebration of the Semiquincentennial with a series of presentations about Clermont at the brink of revolution. Join Interpretive Programs Assistant, Emily Robinson, for a talk about the Livingstons of Clermont in 1776 and the events that spurred them towards independence. Enjoy some liberty-tea punch and spice cake as we follow the international incidents and familial circumstances that eventually brought the British to our doorstep. This presentation complements our next installment in the America 250 series, "The People of Clermont in 1776" on Sunday June 21st presented by our Site Manager, Geoff Benton. Free
