The Mission of the American Heritage Museum
Preserving America’s Heritage, honoring those who served, Educating, and Inspiring Future Generations
We honor and sustain America’s heritage by collecting, preserving, and exhibiting artifacts and historic material that recount our nation’s rich history, culture, values, and innovative achievements.
We seek to educate by offering immersive exhibits, interactive displays, lectures, events, and outreach programs to enlighten people of all ages and backgrounds about the spirit, valor, optimism, and opportunity that have shaped America.
We proudly serve to inspire an appreciation for America’s rich heritage for it remains the foundation by which future generations will strengthen our nation through their integrity, creativity, and the pursuit of knowledge.
Methodology
The American Heritage Museum seeks to engage, educate, entertain and enlighten its audiences in the history of our military and veterans through a chronologically arranged series of exhibits and educational interpretation. We do this through a focus on three themes:
The history of the American fight for independence and the preservation of democracy through history.
The role of the American citizen soldier in the battles fought.
And the role of technology and innovation in the defense of these servicemen and servicewomen.
The American Heritage Museum is additionally committed to the development of living history events within Massachusetts to provide inspiration to our future generations.
