Group Tours
Groups of 15 people or more are eligible for hands-on and artifact-driven programs, where we guide you through the complexities of the Civil War and its legacies. All programs can be adapted for various ages, interests levels, and abilities.
Student/Youth Group Tours
During field trips at ACWM, students become historians, exploring primary source documents and artifacts to delve deeply into the human stories of the Civil War. Using historical and critical thinking skills, students investigate peoples’ lives, the impact of war, and how echoes from the past surround us. All of our student programming aligns with the Virginia Standards of Learning and Common Core.

- Every 10 students one chaperone is admitted free.
- A “group” requires a minimum of 15 people. Programming is available for smaller groups if they pay for the equivalent of 15 individuals.
- For youth groups, rates include museum admission, a classroom program, and a site-specific program experience. Additional experiences can include more programs at the same or different Museum locations.
