Revolutionary Westchester 250

Building Awareness & Appreciation for Westchester County’s

Revolutionary War History


We strive to build awareness and excitement for the events, places, ideas and people—both the unsung and the famous—of the Revolutionary War period in Westchester County, leading up to the 250th Anniversary in 2026.


We collaborate with local and regional groups—heritage and historic, art, cultural, and educational—as well as lib-raries, veterans’ and reenactors’ organizations, municipali-ties, businesses and others, to promote this history and encourage heritage tourism.

We work with county, regional, state and national groups to plan and implement 250th Anniversary events and programs.


We publicize events in Westchester and the lower Hudson Valley that relate to the story of the Revolutionary War period and the founding of the United States.

Since our founding in 2018, we’ve been thrilled by the enthusiasm expressed by both families and history buffs  who have joined us at a wide range of events around the county. We are fully committed to working with and engaging the many diverse voices in Westchester.
