Special Program—Firearms of the American Revolution

Join the Institute’s museum and library staff to explore firearms used by the American, British, French, and Spanish forces during the American Revolution. This program will allow guests to view various examples from our museum collections up close, as well as accompanying military manuals and treatises from our library collections that illuminate the construction, use, and intellectual history of firearms. Examples of firearms that will be displayed include a 1756 British long-land pattern Brown Bess musket, a 1767 French Charleville musket, a 1757 Spanish flintlock musket, and other unique firearms.
