Commemorate the 75th anniversary of D-Day as the City of Alexandria, Virginia, celebrates American and French cultures and U.S. military history, in partnership with the Alexandria-Caen Sister Cities Committee. The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) and the National Inventors Hall of Fame will be exhibiting at the event to encourage everyone to visit the Higgins Boat at the USPTO headquarters.
This event will be held at the city's new Waterfront Park on the banks of the Potomac River. The program will include World War II reenactors, a paint-and-sip station, history booths, a French market and wine garden, and live 1940s swing music and dancers, as well as a fife and drum corps.
Children are encouraged to attend, and admission is free.
