Speaking Engagement Inquiry

Schedule A Speaker

At the Coolidge National Medal of Honor Heritage Center, we not only preserve our nation’s Medal of Honor history, we are also its storytellers. Our commitment to preserving and sharing this rich history extends beyond our institution’s walls through our Community Speaking Engagement Program.

We believe in bringing history to life, connecting the past with the present, and engaging with our community in meaningful discussions. Our experts offer insightful talks and presentations tailored to educate, inspire, and commemorate our shared history.

  • Topics: Our speakers can cover a wide array of subjects within the history of the Medal of Honor, including its recipients, specific military events, historical periods, the evolution of military technology,  personal experiences of veterans, and so on.
  • Format: We offer flexible formats to suit your event – from formal lectures to interactive Q&A sessions.
  • Audience: Our engagements are suitable for schools, colleges, community groups, veterans’ organizations, and other interested parties.
Donation: We ask for a donation for each speaking engagement. The amount of this donation is at your discretion, however, please note that it directly supports our museum’s ongoing preservation efforts and educational programs!
 
Special Consideration: In our commitment to education and community involvement, we will consider waiving this donation for organizations that arrange a visit to the Coolidge National Medal of Honor Heritage Center in conjunction with the speaking engagement. Such visits provide an invaluable opportunity for attendees to connect directly with our exhibits and further enrich their learning experience.
