Experience "Freedom – Freedom Lost, Freedom Gained: The Pressing of Dunmore’s Proclamation"—a powerful living history performance presented by Shades of Our Past and the Watermen’s Museum.

This dramatic retelling brings to life the moment Lord Dunmore seized the Hampton printing press to issue his proclamation, offering freedom to enslaved people and servants who joined the British cause. It was a time of silenced dissent, shifting loyalties, and a complex fight for liberty.
