At Coastal Heritage Society sites in Savannah, generations connect to history.

Your donations help fund CHS All In initiatives, including free museum admission for families receiving public benefits, thereby removing barriers and creating opportunities for curiosity, connection, and lifelong learning at sites like Georgia State Railroad Museum.

“This museum is a participant in the Museum for All program. Because of our WIC card we got in free. This place is amazing for all kids, no matter the age. The train ride was exceptional. They were very informative and I will be stopping back by very soon with my child.” — Kayla R.

As we commemorate our nation’s 250th anniversary and preserve the places where history was made, we invite you to support our mission with a special gift of $250 or by becoming a sustaining donor with a recurring $25 monthly contribution.

Every gift helps expand preservation, education, and community access.

Many thanks to the Rotary Club of Savannah for welcoming the Coastal Heritage Society team to today's meeting, and to Andrea Farmer of the Savannah District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for joining us.

We were grateful for the opportunity to share a preview of Loyalists & Liberty: Savannah in the American Revolution, opening this July at Savannah History Museum, and the remarkable story behind the Revolutionary War-era cannons recovered from the Savannah River.

Huge thanks to Smithsonian Magazine for spotlighting Coastal Heritage Society's upcoming exhibit featuring newly restored Revolutionary War cannons.

This new exhibition - Loyalists & Liberty: Savannah in the American Revolution - opens at Savannah History Museum on Fourth of July weekend, just in time for America’s 250th anniversary.

The cannons were recovered in 2021 from the Savannah River off the shores of Old Fort Jackson and underwent years of conservation after being in the river for about 240 years. Experts believe the cannons sank during the American Revolution.

Be among the first to see the cannons July 2 for the exhibit's opening reception. Learn more and purchase tickets here: chsgeorgia.org/america250/

Starting July 3, the exhibition will be open daily from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Savannah History Museum. Plan your visit!
