As we slowly get back into gear after another raucous Fourth of July, we still have nine and a half weeks until Labor Day, the next holiday celebrated by all 50 states. However, depending on where you live, you might be celebrating Victory Day shortly, or have a relaxing Arbor Day to look forward to. Out latest Transparency is a look at all the holidays celebrated by the United States, and by the individual states. What we take time off for might surprise you.

A collaboration between GOOD and Newhouse Design.

CORRECTION: We neglected to include Nevada and its celebration of statehood, Nevada Day. We’ve uploaded a new file with Nevada included. You can see the old version here.
