from museums participating in this year's special theme:
Virginia Harmonies
Music has always been a part of Virginia’s heritage-from pow wow drummers to gospel singers to bluegrass festivals. Did you know that artists as different as Patsy Cline, Ella Fitzgerald, Roy Clark, Bruce Hornsby, Jason Mraz, Missy Elliott, D’Angelo and the Dave Matthew’s Band began their musical careers in Virginia?
This year several exciting events are taking place that celebrate Virginia’s musical heritage. The Crooked Road: Virginia’s Music Heritage Trail is a driving tour through Southwest Virginia’s many music related sites. The Smithsonian Institution and the Virginia Foundation for the Humanities is sponsoring a traveling exhibit called New Harmonies: Celebrating America’s Roots Music.
TimeTravelers invites you to learn more about Virginia’s musical roots by visiting at least 2 museums that are marked with this symbol on the Destinations lists. Visit these sites and receive a free patch when you send in your passport. It's that easy!
