History Hot Spot at Woodland Cemetery

Join us for a powerful and enlightening History Hot Spot tour of Woodland Cemetery, one of Richmond’s most significant African American burial grounds. Established in 1917 as a final resting place for Black Richmonders during a time of strict segregation, this historic site has undergone vital restoration efforts. Don’t miss this exclusive opportunity to explore the cemetery’s rich history, learn about ongoing preservation work and honor the stories of those laid to rest here—including legendary tennis champion Arthur Ashe. This members-only tour offers a unique chance to connect with Richmond’s past in a truly meaningful way!
