Exhibits

Major Exhibits
USS Constellation is the major attraction of the Museum. Students explore all four decks and learn what it was like for their peers - ship's boys ages 11 - 17 - to live and work on board a 19th century warship.

Programs

Class Programs
The Museum offers one-hour, full day and overnight programming.

The Powder Monkey Tour For Kids is one of our most popular offerings. We highly recommend this hands-on guided experience for school groups.

Our full day programs focus on the development of reading and literacy skills as well as history and social studies through hands-on learning stations.

The USS Constellation Overnight Adventure is an immersive educational experience where students actually live on board much as their 19th century peers. We provide two meals, a full educational program and overnight berthing on board in the ship's hammocks.

Class Trip Pricing:
Varies with program. Please call for additional information and pricing.
