Join us for a special Juneteenth weekend performance highlighting women of Hampton and their life in freedom.

Step back in time at Hampton as remarkable women from history are brought to life through first-person storytelling and authentic costumes by Ms. Story (Shemika Renee). Follow her through the historic rooms of the Hampton Mansion as she presents her interpretation of women such as Nancy Davis and Ida Cummings.

While there, you will also learn directly from staff about the latest discoveries and preservation efforts taking place at Hampton. Get the behind-the-scenes scoop about everything from the construction happening on site to archeological discoveries and rare 18th century objects recently added to the museum collections.

Registration is required!
