Wilmington's Drum Barracks Civil War Technology Fair June 24th 2023 By Photographer and Contributor Simie Seaman
You will be amazed at the science and technology of the 19th century! Wet-plate photography, the telegraph, iron clad ships and submarines, these are just some of the innovations you can explore at the Drum Barracks Civil War Technology Fair. Talk to a blacksmith, learn how a cook prepared food for soldiers, and cover your ears as we fire the cannon. You can also enjoy lectures, self-guided tours of the museum, and a gigantic book sale. It’s a free event. Time: 11:00am – 4:00 pm
