The Ashland Museum hosts many events each year including HistoryTalks, Holiday house tours, Untold Stories: Growing Up in Ashland/Hanover, the Black and White Experience, and tours of the Woodland Cemetery.
Untold Stories: Growing Up in Ashland/Hanover, the Black & White Experience
The Untold Stories program is held each February on a Sunday afternoon in conjunction with Black history month. A panel of 6 people tell their stories regarding a variety of topics, to include education, busing, housing, work, church activities, and more.
Each panel is different and each program is different. Expect to cry, laugh and be amazed at the stories you will hear.
Untold Stories is held in partnership with the Hanover County Black Heritage Society, Downtown Ashland Association and the Hanover Arts & Activities Center.
