Tonight's screening at the York County History Center is going to be REVOLUTIONARY!

The new Ken Burns documentary "The American Revolution" explores the country’s founding struggle and its eight-year War for Independence. It will be available to stream beginning Sunday, November 16 at PBS.org and on the PBS App.

This much-anticipated series, which has been in production for eight years, was directed and produced by Ken Burns, Sarah Botstein and David Schmidt and written by long-time collaborator Geoffrey C. Ward. The filmmakers and PBS scheduled the broadcast for 2025, the 250th anniversary of the start of the war, which began in the spring of 1775, more than a year before the Declaration of Independence.

This event is supported by Capital Blue Cross.
