In commemoration of the colonial custom of illuminating buildings in honor of significant events, the program concludes with two simultaneous fireworks displays at the Capitol and Governor’s Palace. The event begins at 5 pm; fireworks start at 7 pm. Grand Illumination returns for a final time next week, Dec. 20. Free and open to the public.
