City of Louisville, CO

2026 marks two important anniversaries in our history: the 250^th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence and the 150^th anniversary of Colorado’s admission to statehood. This year, the City of Louisville and the Louisville Historical Museum will be celebrating key moments in the history of the nation, the state, and the city. Each Louisville Historian and museum front window exhibit will reflect upon a theme from the Declaration of Independence. From March 10 through May 30, learn about defining moments in our national, state, and local history that reflect the theme of Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.
