SUMMARY:African Burial Ground Guided Visitation
DESCRIPTION:An opportunity to visit the African burial ground and engage with guides about the complex history of the site. \nReservations are required and can be made after 8/23/2024 by calling 302-739-3277. This program is recommended for ages 13 and older. \nThe burial ground is believed to be the final resting place for enslaved and free Black men\, women and children who died on the plantation. The guided visitations will reflect on the historical context and archaeological research surrounding this significant piece of Delaware’s shared history. \nThe 1 ½ hour experience will include an orientation in the visitor center\, a tour of the recreated log’d dwelling and a mile round-trip walk to the burial ground\, which will include a moment of silence. \nA majority of the activities will take place outdoors. Participants must be prepared for adverse weather conditions and for travel\, by foot\, over uneven terrain including an unpaved road and an agricultural field. Appropriate clothing is advised including a hat\, closed-toed shoes with good tread such as sneakers or boots\, long pants and clothing that accounts for current weather conditions and the presence of insects. Visitors are also advised to bring their own insect repellent and sunscreen. \nFor the safety of guests and staff\, the Delaware Division of Historical and Cultural Affairs reserves the right to cancel or postpone any event due to inclement and/or dangerous weather conditions.
