Description
The Carrolls of Homewood were passionate supporters of American freedom. Charles Carroll of Carrollton was even one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence. But who were the Carrolls' opponents, and what motivated them to remain loyal to the crown?
For the first time in Maryland history, Homewood Museum presents an exhibition exclusively focused on loyalists. Highlighting a rare portrait of Colonial governor Horatio Sharpe from the Johns Hopkins University collection, this exhibition will challenge the classic narratives of American and Maryland history and encourage visitors to consider the perspectives of loyalists who ranged from governors and the urban elite to indentured servants and enslaved people.
See the museum website for hours and information about tours.
Tickets
Exhibition included with paid museum admission (free–$8) and on view as part of the guided tour, or $3 for the exhibition only
