Historical Society closed for move
For the next couple of weeks, the Rappahannock Historical Society will be closed as members and volunteers pack up research materials and archives from the society’s temporary headquarters on Mount Salem Avenue in preparation for the much anticipated move to its “new” building on Gay Street.
On March 12, the society will reopen its doors to the public in its renovated building which boasts a new and much needed addition.
