About

Freedom! The Pressing of Dunmore's Proclamation. Lord Dunmore has silenced all dissent. He has seized the printing press in Hampton and has used it to print his proclamation offering freedom to any slave or servant of the rebels that would join British forces. Freedom list and freedom gained. Join us as we peer into the origins of the Virginia Bill of Rights and explore our shared colonial history. This is part of the 250th Anniversary of Dunmore's Virginia Campaign. Join the New Kent Historic Commission and New Kent Parks & Recreation after for apple cider and cookies.
