Explore the complex practice of liberty through tours of the National Liberty Museum’s permanent and featured exhibitions. Located in the heart of the historic district, the Museum offers a contemporary perspective on the boldest and most innovative concept in American history: that liberty is – and must be – a shared pursuit if it is ever truly to be “for all.” Visitors are invited to engage in discussions about liberty that develop the skills for having meaningful conversation, building empathy, resolving conflict, and collaborating on solutions. We offer a range of on-site and virtual guided tour opportunities and can customize on request, based on areas of interest and connections to exhibition themes. All tours last approximately 1 hour and are suitable for adults, seniors, and college students.

Programs

Guided Museum Tour

Available for on-site and virtual experiences 

Explore the meaning of liberty through this comprehensive tour through the National Liberty Museum’s core galleries and current exhibitions. Led by Museum Educators, the group will engage in meaningful discussion on the concept of liberty, its philosophical and historical foundations, and complex issues of liberty today. Visitors will investigate these themes through multimedia presentations, interactive activities, and compelling artistic expressions that help us understand liberty as a concept that is closely linked to our personal values, informed by our lived experiences, and central to the American story.
