    I am very glad to visit this museum in Richmond. The exhibits were put together very well and believe me, it's a lot to digest, especially The Story of Virginia. One of the temporary exhibits that was available (the last day will be the 21st) is Fresh Murals, which showcases paintings from local artists. All I can say they will start conversations on Virginia's past and how far we can move toward the future. Pictures below will be from all the artists. Enjoy.
