Levels
Choose a giving level

$5

One K-12 student

Pay for one student's admission--and allow them to learn fascinating stories of black Virginians in the age of emancipation. It's the kind of experience that could make a big difference in their understanding of the world.

$14

One interpretive label

This level funds production of one interpretive artifact/image label, with professional design and high-quality printing. We want our exhibit to look really good!

$98

Large interpretive wall panel

Production of a large interpretive wall panel on a core topic like black soldiers' experiences during the Civil War. We need professional design and high-quality printing to make these panels pop!

$125

Admission for a whole class

Fund admission for an entire K-12 class, and enrich Virginia schoolchildren's understanding of how African Americans experienced the aftermath of slavery. Help us make sure our exhibit has a big impact.

$322

Entire section of exhibit

Giving at this level would be amazing--funding construction of one whole section of the exhibit, with multiple interpretive panels and artifact/image labels. You'd be responsible for sharing powerful stories about a major theme of African American life like education, the family, or labor.
