A Museum educator, in Revolutionary military costume, shows three adolescents how to use a cannon on the Privateer Ship in the galleries.

How do you make a cannon safe to touch? Did soldiers sleep with their shoes on? How do you learn about archeology? Bring all your burning questions about the Revolutionary Era and chat with one of the Museum's historians.

History Explorers Club playdates are best enjoyed by ages 7-11 but fun for all kids.
