NOW BOOKING! MUSEUM FIELD TRIPS & FRANKLIN’S COLONIAL SCHOOL ASSEMBLIES
We offer a range of tours for school groups during the week (Tuesdays through Fridays) during which students can meet Ben Franklin virtually, explore the history of printing, reenact the Constitutional Convention, and/or participate in hands-on printing activities.
If the Museum is too far for a field trip, we can bring the Museum to you through our traveling “Museum on Wheels,” which includes both an assembly at our history trailer and a virtual visit with Ben Franklin, which are sure to make history come alive for your students!
