A Revolutionary Experience in Boston
By Linda Tancs
Historical interpreters, interactive exhibits, full-scale replica 18th-century sailing vessels and historic artifacts are just some of what you’ll experience at the Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum. The journey begins with an actor portraying Samuel Adams, who will inform you of the events leading to the Boston Tea Party, an act of defiance that escalated tensions with Great Britain, leading to the American Revolution. You’ll find replicas of the Beaver and Eleanor, where you can participate in throwing “tea” into the same body of water where it all took place over two centuries ago. The Robinson Tea Chest is the only known surviving tea chest from the event, which is proudly displayed at the museum. Open daily, reservations are required for timed admission.
