Starting in 2024, we will be offering tours of the Archives, including the Vault! Each tour will have a special theme and showcase primary source materials relating to that theme. You’ll get to see the innerworkings of the Archives, as well as get up close and personal with original, historical documents and artifacts, including those from the 18th and 19th centuries.
Each tour will be limited to ten participants due to the limited space in the Vault and our mission to preserve the materials in our collections to the best of our abilities. However, if you have a small child or a tour is full but you wanted to tour with your spouse, we will make limited exceptions to expand the total amount up to 20 depending on circumstances.
