The campus of the former Dunbar High School represents how the desire for education has shaped African American communities both past and present. Join us as we take a casual, 60-minute guided walking tour of the campus and learn the history of Lynchburg's all-Black high school and the innovative middle school it is today. We will also dive into the life and legacy of the school’s namesake Paul Laurence Dunbar.
