Last Winter of the War

Join us for a special event exploring camp life at Fort Harrison in the last winter of the war. Lincoln has been re-elected, United States troops have captured some of Richmond's outer defenses. Confederate forces are bringing in new conscripts, and Southern civilians face shortages of food, medicine, and clothing.

The day will feature special tours, living history programs and displays, children's activities, and more!
