Boston National Historical Park offers a menu of educational opportunities including self- guided visits, historical tours and talks presented by park rangers or curriculum-based education programs presented by park rangers or in collaboration with a park partner.

To make a reservation for either a park ranger presentation or curriculum-based education program, please contact Sandy Norris, (617) 242-5689. sandy_norris@nps.gov. If you wish to visit during the spring months, call the previous fall as the spring programs fill up quickly.

Did You Know?
Did you know that the financing for The Bunker Hill Monument was a hand-to-mouth project, culminating in a bake sale in 1840, three years before the dedication? By contrast, The Dorchester Heights Monument was financed by an appropriation from the Massachusetts Legislature amounting to $100,000.
