The America250MI

Program Guide

Use this guide to help commemorate the 250th anniversary of the United States. Inside are America250MI's guiding themes, ideas for participation, unique Michigan perspectives, and outreach resources.

Our Mission

To fully engage the people of Michigan in commemorating the Semiquincentennial of the American Revolution.

The two hundred fiftieth anniversary of the United States is a unique opportunity to reflect on the founding of the United States, the American Revolution's role in Michigan's history, and the impact these, and other historic events had on the people of Michigan’s past, present, and future. The America250MI Committee seeks to generate a spirit

of collaboration across the state through municipalities, cultural and civic organizations, libraries, schools, and community groups. It is our hope that those networks will embrace the entirety of the nation's story, recognizing the importance of good, bad, and ambivalent histories, while setting the stage for a more compassionate and united future through carefully considered programs, events, and exhibits.
