Join the staff at the Pry House for a “garden party” to prepare the nineteenth century-style kitchen and medicinal garden.
The Board of Directors of the National Museum of Civil War Medicine (NMCWM) have signed an Operating Agreement with the United States General Services Administration (GSA) that will enable work to move forward to open Clara Barton’s Missing Soldier’s Office. The Clara Barton Missing Soldiers Office is now undergoing restoration. The first phase will be opening a Welcome Center, tentatively scheduled for late fall to early winter 2012-2013. During this period, although public tours of the space is not available, special programs and events will be held regularly. Please call Superintendent Susan Rosenvold for more information. Meanwhile, interested parties can visit our other sites, The National Museum of Civil War Medicine, the Pry House Field Hospital Museum, or NPS's Clara Barton National Historic Site in Glen Echo, MD. For more information, please call Susan Rosenvold at 301-695-1864 ext. 15 or email clarabarton@civilwarmed.org.
