Traveling Trunks

The Institute’s traveling trunks enrich classroom learning about the Revolutionary War through hands-on activities and analysis of documents and artifacts.

Each themed trunk contains high-quality reproduction clothing and artifacts as well as images of historical objects and documents for student investigation. Accompanying lesson plans may be adapted for elementary, middle or high school students.

Trunks are shipped directly to schools for a one-week period at no cost.

OUR TRAVELING TRUNKS ARE COMPLETELY BOOKED FOR THE 2026-2027 ACADEMIC YEAR.
Reservation requests for the 2027-28 school year will be taken beginning March 20, 2027!
