SCHOOL TOURS

Our mission is to increase understanding about our collective past through education, and we welcome K–12 and college school groups to visit the Charms. Bringing new generations to the houses communicates the value of our shared history and encourages students to think about how they live today.

With six unique houses to visit, our highly trained docents are happy to customize your students’ learning experience. To organize your school tour, please fill out the Google form linked here.

School tour reservations should be made at least two weeks before your visit.

“The tours have a tremendous effect on the children. The students are able to touch history. They love the stories that we tell, especially those dealing with early American children their age.”  - JOYCE JOYNES, Lemon Hill Guide and former caretaker
