SCHOOL TOURS
 

You are invited to explore Baltimore's Colonial past through the eyes of the Charles Carroll, Barrister and family at Mount Clare Museum House.

Students step back in time to the 18th century and experience life in colonial Maryland. See the everyday objects used by the Carrolls and their descendants and enjoy an intimate tour that will allow students to discuss the differences and similarities between life in the colonies and life now.

Led by trained docents in period clothing, the Mount Clare school programs are unique inquiry-based experiences for K-12 students. All programs are aligned with Maryland State content standards, Maryland College and Career-Ready Standards, and can be tailored to specific curriculum needs.
