Night at the Museum, 1863!

We are very excited to announce that our popular, "Night at the Museum, 1863" program is back! It has been over a year since we were able to bring to you our live performance theater, where our civilians of Gettysburg come to life to tell you their story!

You will hear the stories of the people who struggled, survived, and rebuilt not only a town but a country. As you move through the museum, you will hear messages of courage and strength - that through the dark there is light. You will gain a better sense of what life was truly like for them during the war, and how they were ordinary people like us, who had to do extraordinary things!
