See the BIG Tanks at Tank Demo Weekend! A fantastic weekend where you can see some of the American Heritage Museum’s tanks including the M4 Sherman and M24 Chaffee and other privately owned military vehicles operating on the tank driving grounds behind the museum.

Special to this weekend – they will operate the M26A1 Pershing and M18 Hellcat. Captivating historical narration will bring these amazing machines to life. WWII veterans will be participating in the exhibition!
