It’s been awhile since I’ve posted any old photos, but I would like to get back into as the history of the museum is fascinating! This first photo shows the Virginia Travel Council visiting us on October 16, 1953. This is especially relevant as Virginia Tourism paid us a visit just a couple of weeks ago.
On September 3, 1947, a group of children were rewarded for participating in the Library Vacation Reading Plan with a visit to the museum. Clearly the little boy in the front wasn’t too thrilled about the visit, he looks so bored. Haha! The other boy on the left is intensely studying our Robert Hood watercolor, which is a very interesting piece. The letters are created by using people or other aspects of the image.
