В Old sturbridge village, a living history museum in Sturbridge (Massachusetts), continues the tradition of July naturalization 4.

The museum has 40 of historic buildings, where historians work in traditional costumes, which tell visitors about life in provincial New England 1830's. On Independence Day, the past will meet with the present when almost 100 immigrants take an oath of loyalty to members of the Sturbridge community, visitors and museum staff.

“Both for people taking the oath and for observers - American citizens, this is a reminder of the true meaning of this day, and why it’s so important to remember,” says museum employee Michael Arnam.

Each new citizen, naturalized at the ceremony of the Fourth of July in Sturbridge, receives a museum membership for one year and a mug made to order in the historic pottery workshop.
