The Thomas Paine Memorial Association (TPMA) and a coalition of leading secular, historical, and humanist organizations invite the public to the annual celebration of the birth of one of America’s most influential Founders — Thomas Paine. Paine, author of Common Sense and The American Crisis, played an indispensable role in igniting the call for independence and sustaining morale through the darkest moments of the Revolution. His writing, service, and vision for a democratic society continue to inspire generations.
This event offers an extraordinary opportunity to rediscover Thomas Paine’s contributions through scholarship, performance, and reflection. Congressman Jamie Raskin and Congresswoman Victoria Spartz will deliver opening words.
