Corvus Cohort: Living History

Corvus Cohort is our premiere Living History group! Booking this program features a historical and exciting recreation of military life from one of a number of historical impressions. This group focuses on interacting with event visitors to bring the fascinating and exciting history to life!

At an event, Corvus Cohort will set up a historical encampment that features a camp kitchen, historical crafters, an "armory" featuring a large number of historical weaponry and tools of war, a practice area, and more! Educators interact with the public throughout the day at the encampment, going over details of historical life in the camp, demonstrating tool or weapon use, and answering questions.
