Date and time: August 25 from 9:30 am – 1:30 pm

Location: 1889 Territorial Schoolhouse (124 E. 2nd St.)

Cost: $15 per person | Spots are limited 

Experience history firsthand! Step into the past at the 1889 Territorial Schoolhouse and discover what a school day was like over a century ago. Normally reserved for student field trips, this immersive experience is now open to grown-ups eager to try their hand at slate writing, recitations, cyphering, and more.

Led by a living history actor (schoolmarm) in an authentic one-room classroom, participants will explore historic lessons, learn about 19th-century school rules and etiquette, and enjoy the charm (and challenge!) of an old-fashioned education. Whether you’re a history enthusiast, educator, or just curious—this is your chance to be the student for a day.

Space is limited and advance registration is required
