Jan/Feb 2025 Opening Reception: From Sunup to Sundown, But the Work Never Stops
This exhibition, curated from the Black History Museum and Cultural Center of Virginia, will serve as a survey of the history of labor in Virginia.
African Americans have unequivocally been a major force in the sustaining the economy of the Commonwealth of Virginia and the nation.

Over time, African Americans have influenced progress and been a vital force in the workplace, despite discrimination, poor working conditions and unequal compensation.
