Meet and greet History Makers, costumed historic interpreters who rehearse and train for months in preparation for an authentic, accurate, and interactive experience, as they bring to life some of the city’s most famous, and not-so-famous, citizens from the 18th and 19th centuries. Hear from them in person, speaking about their everyday lives from days of old in Philadelphia. History Makers can be found in Independence Visitor Center.
Once Upon A Nation experiences are created in partnership with Independence National Historical Park and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.
