"We think this was a wonderful experience for our students. One which they can never learn in a textbook.
Your artwork is also so beautiful. It is a great comparison between our feelings and glass - FRAGILE!"

Paxon Hollow Middle School
"Our trip to your museum was the most outstanding trip I've taken students on. Your message must be shared with
all students. I hope to return every year. My students thought the Mandela cell was so realistic they felt they
really met him. Anne Frank exhibit evoked great emotion. They were thrilled to see all the heroes and artwork
that we studied..."

"Museum's layout effective! Glass is incredible metaphor displayed beautifully and explained well. Can't wait to
come back!"
Christine Neimond
Cedarbrook Middle School
"This was one of the most informative and most enjoyable trips I've experienced with a class. Kudos to a knowledgeable,
caring staff! Weeks after the students visited the museum they continue to refer to something they saw, remembered or
were in awe of."
Joann Sullivan
Heston Elementary School
"My students were somber all the way back to school. I think they were processing all that they'd experienced."

"The National Liberty Museum provided my students with
an unforgettable educational experience. The excellent
exhibits and galleries made my students aware of the
importance of diversity, democracy and liberty... one
student said the museum was 'inspirational' and another
student commented that he enjoyed 'everything.' All students
were actively involved."
Mary Byrd
Collingswood High School
"Our students were quite moved by their experiences at the museum. The section devoted to "Conflict to Resolution" made an
especially strong impact on them. I thought the way in which we moved from the horror of violence in our society to the
positive, life-affirming display of young heroes was thoughtfully organized."
Linda Arricale
Charles Boehm M.S.
"It really opened my students' and my own eyes to many issues that the world is now confronting. I especially enjoyed the
diversity in the museum - the artwork, historical exhibits, interactive exhibits (voting polls, shredder) and thought that the
issues and presentation were very age-appropriate."

Student Comments
"During recess today, I managed to stop myself from saying one of the words I shredded at your museum. My favorite exhibit
of yours was the Jelly Beans and Butterflies."

"I like when you gave out mean words like bossy, ugly, clomzey. Well you get the idea. I liked when we shredded the paper.
And you said shred it and forget it. I like that part best."
Tamira White
3rd Grade
"The Jellybean People were different from any artwork I've ever seen. Another artwork I liked was The Wings of Liberty
I like the way your museum teaches kids about history and what's going on in America, while showing great works of art. I
liked your museum so much that I'm trying to come back with my family!"

"The part I liked was the person in jail, Nelson Mandela. I decided to study about him because I don't know what it's
like in jail."
Donte Williams
5th Grade
"My favorite part was when we wrote the words that we said to other people or that they said to us and we shredded them.
It made me feel good to know that those words can't hurt me or no one else."
