Lady Liberty Turns 120!
Located on a 12 acre island, the Statue of Liberty Enlightening the World was a gift of friendship from the people of France to the people of the United States and is a universal symbol of freedom and democracy. The Statue of Liberty was dedicated on October 28, 1886, designated as a National Monument in 1924 and restored for her centennial on July 4, 1986.
Performing groups that participate in the National Festival of the States concert series in New York City have the opportunity of visiting the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island.
