Gettysburg has always been a source of inspiration, courage and devotion.
At the Gettysburg Foundation we're dedicated to ensuring it will always remain that way.
During these challenging times, we're continuing our mission to preserve these hallowed grounds and connect all generations to the lasting significance of the battle, the people and our "new birth of freedom."
While our Visitor Center & Museum is closed, we've put together a collection of resources to help bring the Gettysburg experience to you.
We know nothing can replace the experience of actually viewing the Cyclorama, exploring the museum and touring the battlefield.
But we hope these few simple reminders will provide you with some inspiration until you can once again visit Gettysburg.

Cyclorama Coloring Pages
The iconic Gettysburg Cyclorama painting took French artist Paul Philippoteaux and his team of artists more than a year and a half to complete.
Now you can color your own masterpieces in a lot less time.
Just download these Cyclorama images and assemble your own team of artists to paint or color your own version of the famous painting.
Things to do Inside
Cannons are among the most photographed items on the battlefield, and we want to see your own version of these classic works of art.
Draw this cannon - or have your own budding artist draw one - and post it to your favorite social media account with #GettysburgGraphics for all of us to safely enjoy.
Look for more #GettysburgGraphics until we can all return to the battlefield.
