Historic Annapolis warmly welcomes homeschoolers to join us for a special day of hands-on learning.

Step back in time at Hogshead Trades Museum, a unique dwelling on historic Pinkney Street, and learn how working-class people lived in Annapolis during the Revolutionary era. During this interactive experience, students will be led by guides in colonial attire and have the opportunity to interact with reproduction artifacts as they try their hand at skills of the past. Students will discover why trades were critical to the early American economy and how craft persons developed their skills. Students will also have the opportunity to create their own colonial business!
