Sports Richmond, VA

Explore an archival institution near you in October for American Archives Month, starting with a tour of the Library of Virginia! Archives Month celebrates those institutions and individuals that help to preserve and make accessible the important records of our actions as residents, businesses, religious groups, government and society. This work can give us a sense of being part of a larger picture and helps us begin to recognize our connections to others — family, community, nation or a group defined by ethnicity, religion, work or play.

This guided tour starts at 11 a.m. and will take visitors through the Library's second floor, archival storage, special collections area and the digitization lab. Reserve your spot soon!

This year’s Virginia Archives Month theme is "Remember Me: Death and Memorial in the Archives.” After the tour, attendees are welcome to stay and participate in our Theater, Church, Monument and Memory: Exploring the History of Monumental Church program.

This tour is free, but registration is required. Limited free parking is available underneath the Library at 800 East Broad Street. For more information, contact Mary Ann Mason at maryann.mason@lva.virginia.gov or 804.692.3648.

Programming assistance is provided by the Friends of the Virginia State Archives, a 501(c)(3) organization. Visit them at [friendsofvirginiaarchives.org](http://friendsofvirginiaarchives.org/).
