Annapolis Alive! Celebration

Mayor Ellen Moyer talks about the city's Annapolis Alive! celebration. Sparked by the 300th anniversary of the signing of Annapolis' royal charter, Annapolis Alive! is a joyful celebration of this and every city's independence. The 1708 charter—the only royal municipal charter in the colonies—not only provided Annapolis independent "City" status, but permitted locally elected representation for the first time in the southern colonies. The celebration of the 300th anniversary of the city charter provides a once in a lifetime opportunity to highlight the traditions of Annapolis and its impact to a larger audience. This is a yearlong party that will stretch from Annapolis' historic City Dock, to the US Naval Academy, to neighborhoods, schools, streets and pubs all over town. Major arts, cultural and historical events will share the stage with neighborhood festivals, pub-crawls, parties, special historical tours, even a National Town Crier competition. Annapolis invites the whole world to help us make history by celebrating 300 years of dynamic, inclusive, surprising, sometimes revolutionary self-rule.
