Join us for the opening reception of our September First Fridays mini-exhibit: “Lynchburg African American Women’s Clubs: The History and Early Clubs.” This special, community-curated exhibit is a part of a three-month series highlighting how local African American women’s groups supported their communities.
This exhibit will feature rare artifacts and memorabilia from the Daughters of Samaria, Negro Garden Clubs of Virginia, Women’s Community Club, Eastern Star, and Home Demonstration Club of Campbell County. Community leaders Vivian Carr Miller and Phyllistine Mosley have worked diligently on this project in partnership with the Lynchburg Museum System.
If you can’t join us on September 2, the exhibit will remain on display at the Lynchburg Museum through October 3.
