Harriet Tubman’s Tilly Escape: Juneteenth Immersive Experience on the Water

On October 21, 1856, Harriet Tubman executed one of her most complex and strategic missions—

A journey that defied logic.

A plan so bold…
she had to go south… to go north.

• On this experience, you don’t just hear the story.
• You follow the escape route—on the same waters where it happened.

See the World-Famous Baltimore Inner Harbor like never before.

• The docks where journeys began
• The waterways where freedom was risked
• The city as it existed before, during and after the Civil War

Step inside Harriet Tubman’s 1856 escape mission:

• Hear the movement of the harbor around you
• Follow the strategy in real time
• Experience the tension, risk, and brilliance of the plan

Discover the hidden system behind the escape:

• Underground Railroad routes through Baltimore
• Operatives, safe houses, and resistance
• The connection to Frederick Douglass and beyond
