On November 10th 1969, the popular children’s program Sesame Street aired its first episode. 54 years later, Sesame Street is one of the longest-running shows in the world with over 4,500 episodes. The beloved series has won an impressive 222 Emmy Awards and remains a household staple for children’s television. We were honored to have some visitors from Sesame Street on A Capitol Fourth to perform some of their hit songs. #sesamestreet #ACapitolFourth #July4thPBS | A Capitol Fourth
