Spring field trip scheduling is open! Outdoor field trips are available starting May 1st. Due to a construction project in the main building, April field trips will be very limited. If you would like to schedule a field trip, please fill out the field trip request form.
If you are looking for a field trip to take place before May 1st, please contact the Education Director first: Kristjana Eyjólfsson, keyjolfsson@missoulacounty.us.
The Historical Museum at Fort Missoula specializes in providing unique hands-on educational activities. Our tours tell the stories of Missoula from the homestead period through the present. We have field trip options to suit any grade level and interest within Missoula’s history and some with more global themes.
Each theme has several options depending on your class size and how long you would like to spend at Fort Missoula. In most cases, we will break the class into smaller groups to rotate through activity stations to ensure the best possible docent-to-student ratio. Teachers can plan on 40-45 minutes for each field trip station. For larger groups, you may wish to choose up to 3 stations.
Tours for educational groups are offered free of charge but do require a reservation.
To schedule a tour please use the field trip request form or contact Kristjana via email at keyjolfsson@missoulacounty.us or by phone at 406-258-3469.
