The Pioneer History Center in Wawona has a square dance on 4th of July and usually also have a BBQ, games, races, music and other activities. When we were in Yosemite during the 4th many years ago and they had a patriotic program at Curry but I don't know if they are still doing that and the summer guide is not out yet. Oakhurst and Bass Lake both have activities and fireworks.
parklover has some great info and is correct :-) Wawona is the only place in Yosemite that officially celebrates 4th of july independence day. Our interpretative rangers set up some great events every year to occur in the pioneer history center throughout the day and come 8pm they have a nice square dance in the barn in the pioneer history center to finish off the night. They usually come up with a schedule of listed events that occur in wawona throughout the day with games and various activities

And as mentioned, bass lake has some great fireworks every year (though bass lake would be about 90 minutes away from the valley if that's where you're camping)
