The post-pandemic reinstatement of school tours and other tours at Sloss Furnaces.

Sloss Furnaces National Historic Landmark, a one-time iron foundry now interpreted as a museum dedicated to the industrial history of Birmingham, Alabama, has remained closed to school class tours for more than one year due to the COVID-19 crisis. This application seeks funding to help reinstate tours for local classrooms, with appropriate safety protocols.
