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 Tours & Educational Programs

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 people’s lives, the impact of war, and how echoes from the past surround us. Our student programming aligns with the Virginia Standards of Learning and Common Core.

Contact us for more scheduling information. Reservations must be made at least two weeks in advance. Book early to ensure availability. To book your Student Group Tour or Youth Program, contact us at youthprograms@acwm.org.
