Located along the Mississippi River in southwest Tennessee, Memphis isn’t called the Home of Blues, Soul & Rock ‘n’ Roll for nothing!
Students can hear what’s happening on Beale Street, learn what’s inside of the Memphis Pyramid and more. Educational opportunities, performance venues and transformative cultural experiences abound!
Be sure students visit the National Civil Rights Museum and the Slave Haven Underground Railroad Museum—essential educational experiences. From there, immerse students in music history and performance at Graceland, the Blues Hall of Fame and Sun Studio, where they can even touch Elvis’ microphone! Don’t forget to stop by the Memphis Rock ‘n’ Soul Museum before getting close to the hippos and crocodiles at the Memphis Zoo.
After all that excitement, pull up a chair at B.B. King’s Blues Club & Grill and Central BBQ for some seriously delicious meals, or dine on the water on a steamboat launched from Beale Street Landing. Memphis’ rich heritage will move your soul like few places can.
