July 4 Naturalization Ceremony at Historic Annapolis

Join Historic Annapolis in welcoming forty new citizens into the American family at a naturalization ceremony on Thursday, July 4, 2013. The free event, which has become an annual Independence Day tradition, will be held at the William Paca House and Garden. Seating for the ceremony will be reserved for the new citizens and their invited guests, with limited seating and standing room available for members of the general public.

Following the naturalization ceremony's conclusion, the William Paca House and Garden will be open free of charge from 11:00 a.m. until 2:30 p.m. Visitors are welcome to enjoy the restored two-acre colonial garden on their own, and guided tours of the home's first floor will begin every fifteen minutes from 11:00 a.m. to 1:45 p.m.

The Historic Annapolis Museum at 99 Main Street and the Museum Store at 77 Main Street will both be open from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on July 4th. The Museum's new exhibit, "Freedom Bound: Runaways of the Chesapeake," highlights the stories of nine slaves and servants who attempted to escape from bondage between 1728 and 1864.
