Join fellow Museum Members on the first Sunday of every month for special Members-only tours of our galleries, special exhibitions, and historic neighborhood.

The Museum of the American Revolution opened in April of 2017, but what was here before that? In this 45-minute lecture and discussion on Sunday, April 7, at 9:30 a.m., learn more about the excavation and archaeology done on this site prior to the construction of this building — and what we found underground.

Our monthly Member Mornings are free for Museum Members to attend with advance registration. Not yet a Museum Member? Become a member today.
