WASHINGTON, DC— On January 21st, 2026, the Freedom 250 Freedom Truck made its first stop in North Carolina. Inspired by the Freedom Train of our nation’s 1976 bicentennial, the Freedom Trucks are the largest ever traveling exhibits teaching about America’s founding. Freedom Trucks will travel the nation to share the story of America’s founding.
The next stop will take place February 20th - 23rd at Florida Atlantic University.
“After its exciting start in North Carolina, I'm proud to announce that the Freedom 250 Mobile Museum Tour will next visit Florida Atlantic University,” said Department of Labor Deputy Secretary Keith Sonderling. “The bus will provide students, faculty, and community members with a chance to expand their understanding of American history and experience state of the art educational tools."
