The Eldred WWII Museum offers a variety of educational opportunities to schools, organizations, families and individuals.
Free Access to all of the educational services of the Museum are free of charge to schools.
We do not charge admission fees for educational visits to the Museum or for Staff member’s participation in events outside of the Museum.
Group Tours
Tours, students and faculty visit the Museum for tours covering various aspects of WWII. Tours have been developed in cooperation with faculty to address specific areas of study such as the Holocaust, Women’s roles, Veterans Day and the Navajo Code Talkers. For a specialized educational tour, please contact the Museum staff.
To arrange a group tour, please contact us via the contact form at the bottom of this page.
Museum Staff members have spoken to History Classes and Assemblies at Elementary and High Schools as well as speaking at both St. Bonaventure University and the University of Pittsburgh at Bradford.
Artifacts are generally brought along on these visits to enhance the presentations. This is also a way that the Museum reaches out to schools which are unable to bring students to the Museum because of funding issues.
For schools enhancing the learning experience with field trips, our Resource Guide offers projects based on the content of museum exhibits.
