Welcome to the 2017 Young Heroes Award!
Join us on Tuesday, April 28 for an engaging speaker event exploring the powerful connection between sports, community, and the fundamental right to assemble! This program examines how sports have long served as platforms for collective expression, protest, and unity. Through perspectives from athletes such as basketball legend Valerie Still and Phillies icon Milt Thompson, this discussion will highlight how sports continue to shape conversations around freedom of assembly and social change.

Connect with colonial Philadelphians at the sites where they once gathered on the National Liberty Museum's Philadelphia's Revolutionary Tavern Tour. Experienced tour guides will take you through the heart of Old City and share the stories which unfolded in the many taverns which dotted the neighborhood. The tour ends at Man Full of Trouble Tavern, a bar operating in the oldest standing tavern building in Philadelphia.
The tour is just over one mile of walking on flat terrain. The walking portion of the tour is approximately 90 minutes.
