Soldiers & Sailors offers a variety of options for groups looking to visit the museum. The most in-depth opportunity is called the “Behind the Lines Tour”. This experience includes all public viewing areas of the museum, as well as an exploration of additional storage areas that are not open to the public. Also included is a journey to the “vault” where visitors learn the stories behind some of the rarest artifacts in our collection that are not on display. This Spotlight On will provide a “sneak peek” into this unique chance to venture “Behind the Lines” at Soldiers & Sailors.
