Communicating in the Pursuit of Life, Liberty, and Happiness.
The Declaration of Independence summarized the colonists' motivations to seek independence from Great Britain and is seen as the first formal statement of a nation's intention to choose their own form of government. This exhibit not only highlights the influencers and communication techniques used for this historical period including song, music, maps, and the written word, but makes connections to Utah's Contributions and the communication and technology used today.

This travelling exhibit, sponsored by the Larry H. and Gail Miller Family Foundation and the Utah Division of Arts and Museums, is part of the celebration for the 250th Anniversary of the Signing of the Declaration of Independence.
