The Lynchburg Museum invites children ages 6-11 to spend a Saturday afternoon with us as we explore the “Roaring Lynchburg: Social Life in 1925” exhibit.
On Friday, March 7, 5:00 p.m. – 8:00 p.m., the Lynchburg Museum will be open for a special speakeasy event, featuring live music, dancing, mocktails, a photo booth, and a few surprises! Attendees are encouraged to dress in their 1920's best.
George L. Wilkinson (1917–1984) was a beloved mail carrier and Boy Scout troop leader in Lynchburg for 30 years. He lived at 604 Harrison Street with his wife and two sons.
The Lynchburg Museum’s Art & Artisans gallery has recently been updated with a new exhibit highlighting a selection of works in local artistry and craftsmanship ranging from portraits to purses to foundry-cast ducks. The exhibit includes objects of both visual and historic interest and celebrates some of Lynchburg’s most notable artists, craftspeople, and industries, including the Virginia Art Goods Studios.

On this 160th anniversary of the Battle of Lynchburg, we reflect on the event and its significance in local history.
