Help Stitch America’s 250th Anniversary Tapestry at Hershey History Center
On Saturday, February 7, 2026, from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, visitors can join members of America’s Tapestry to help create a commemorative work of art. Designed by the creative team at America’s Tapestry, the project consists of thirteen embroidered panels, each representing one of the original thirteen colonies. Through the medium of embroidery, the tapestry weaves together the foundational stories of the nation. A centerpiece of the event is the Pennsylvania Panel, which depicts the historic activities of flag workers across the Keystone State. Attendees have the rare opportunity to contribute their own stitches to this panel, helping to bring Pennsylvania’s revolutionary history to life.
Participation Details:
• Skill Level: While embroidery expertise is not required, some experience with needlework is helpful.
• Registration: Individuals interested in stitching the tapestry panel should contact Lisa Maloy via email at [email protected]
This event offers a hands-on way for the community to connect with the national Semiquincentennial celebration. By contributing to these panels, participants become part of a collective effort to honor the diverse history of the original colonies.
