In 2026, the United States will mark the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence—our nation’s semiquincentennial. At the same time, Colorado will mark the 150th anniversary of our entrance into the Union—our state’s sesquicentennial. As the Centennial State, Colorado is the only one who will observe twin anniversaries—our Sesquisemiquincentennial. That’s a mouthful! Most people are calling it the 250/150 celebration.
Members of the MCA Board are attending the local planning meetings to begin integrating our exhibits and events into the other activities that will be happening throughout the year in our community.
If you have any historical art ideas for classes, exhibits or events, please contact us and use “250/150 Celebration” as the subject line.
