We all have a story to share. 76 years of memories, in the historical context of our day, live and grow within our museum.

​

It is a history of four counties of African Americans and the high school that shaped an entire region.  What is that high school?  The George Washington Carver Regional High School in Rapidan, Virginia.  What were the four counties:  Culpeper, Orange, Rappahannock, and Madison.

What's On Exhibit?

We Declare . . . 
that under the Virginia Declaration of Rights and the U. S. Declaration of Independence, we are free and independent.

This exhibit is an exploration of natural rights and 27 grievances that led colonists to say, "ENOUGH" in 1776 to a tyrant.

Examining the context of the times, the exhibit compares those 27 grievances to 2025, and asks, "Am I Giving Up My Freedom and Independence to Tyranny?" 

​

Open NOW through July 11, 2026






Liberty, Labor and Langston
In 1936, Langston Hughes wrote the poem,
"Let America Be America Again,"
which is the foundation for our new exhibit.  For a preview, click the PDF icon.  An expanded version is on view in the museum through December.
