The Newberry Opera House invites the community to a stirring live reading of the Declaration of Independence, a signature tradition that honors the foundational principles of American liberty. This public recitation brings the historic document to life within the walls of the city’s iconic performing arts center, allowing the audience to reflect on the weight and significance of the words that shaped a nation. By positioning this reading as the centerpiece of the afternoon, the event fosters a profound sense of civic pride and historical connection. Immediately following this powerful tribute to the country’s origins, the 246th Army Band takes the stage to continue the patriotic celebration through their renowned musical program.
