Tours
Docent Guided
Our knowledgeable docents guide students through displays covering World War I through the Global War on Terror. Tours are tailored to the age/grade of the students and available for grades K-12. Students in grades 9-12 receive our Life in 2001 America Before 9/11 presentation before exploring our Global War on Terror wing. This class highlights what life, music, fads, and technology was like for young people in 2001 and includes news footage of 9/11. Students will also hear someone who served during that time talk about how 9/11 impacted their life in the U.S. Armed Forces.
Larger groups that include a wide range of grade levels may be self-guided. We recommend, if possible, scheduling multiple field trips that cater to specific grade levels for a more personal experience.
