Living History & Activities

Interact with living historians of the 150th PA Bucktails in their encampment on the lawn at the children’s history museum. Features living historians representing soldiers and portraying women on the home front.

Participate in hands-on history activities. Join us for activities such as “drilling practice” at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. and the opportunity to “enlist”  in the 150th PA Bucktails regiment. Participants can learn the daily drill of a Civil War soldier.

Tickets are required to experience the children’s history museum adventure before or after your encampment visit or before the Saturday talks. Children/Youth (ages 0-12) are currently free with purchase of an adult (ages 13+) ticket.
