From Plantation To Emancipation – The Freedom Experience

Expiration: After selected date
The Heritage Society

In a city where history whispers from restored brick made from the mud of Buffalo Bayou, Houston offers a transformative journey into a past that both wounds and heals. The Heritage Society’s Elevated Tour Experience with Acting: Black History invites visitors to immerse themselves in a rich narrative—a journey from the depths of enslavement to the triumphant dawn of emancipation. 

This tour is more than an educational expedition; it is an emotional odyssey that honors the struggles, sacrifices, and relentless spirit of those who fought for freedom. As participants traverse historic sites, they are invited to witness the tangible stories of the past—a past filled with hardship, hope, and the unwavering human drive toward liberation. 

Whether you are a history enthusiast, a lifelong learner, or someone seeking a deeper connection to the roots of American freedom, this tour was designed by professional tourism experts to create an invitation to engage with history in its most authentic form. Tickets are $25 for a 90-minute tour that is offered every Saturday in June and on June 19, 2025, from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.  Our tours are offered year-round normally on the second and fourth Saturdays of the month; from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.

Please arrive 10-15 minutes prior to your tour time for parking and walking through our campus to the museum gallery for check-in. Free parking is available at 212 Dallas Street.
