Current Exhibitions

Exhibition runs February 19 - December 31, 2023

  The story of Loudoun County farms is one of perseverance and ingenuity. Likewise, the story of Loudoun’s black villages is one of tenacious common purpose. The Nokes manure spreader provides a glimpse into the lives of the Nokes family and other residents of Nokesville, an unincorporated hamlet populated by black Loudouners during the Jim Crow era. . .
