Naturalization Ceremony at Strawbery Banke on July 4, 2022

The court is pleased to preside over the naturalization ceremony hosted by Strawbery Banke in Portsmouth, NH. The event is open to the public and will begin at 10 a.m. New citizens should follow the instructions on their notices from USCIS for arrival times and specific instructions for the day. The ceremony will take place outdoors under a tent, rain or shine. Mask are optional but encouraged. Due to current transmission rates of Covid-19 in New Hampshire, the receiving line with the judge and special guests will be restricted to new citizens only. New citizens should plan to have a phone or camera with them at their seats during the ceremony, as family and friends will not be joining them prior to the receiving line. Upon conclusion of the event, family and friends are welcome to remain on the grounds for group photos.
