Rosewell Foundation, Inc.
Gloucester, Virginia

Historic House

One of colonial America's grandest mansions, Rosewell was built between 1725-1738 and gutted by fire in 1916. Four massive chimneys, one wall, and a vaulted cellar are now silent witnesses to history. Stabilized, but not rebuilt, Rosewell allows visitors to inspect 18th-century brickwork from a perspective that no intact building can offer.
The Rosewell mansion was the centerpiece of a 3000-acre plantation where slaves cultivated tobacco and grain. Beneath its soil, countless artifacts now wait for archaeologists to interpret them. While preservation and study are ongoing, there are no plans to rebuild the mansion within its remaining walls.

Walter Reed Birthplace
Gloucester, Virginia

History, Historic House

Dr. Walter Reed, famous U. S. Army physician and medical hero of the Spanish-American War, was born here on September 13, 1851. The small, two-room and loft building was built prior to 1850. The Reed family lived here while they awaited construction of the manse. Reed's father was a Methodist minister for a nearby church. Located at the intersection of routes 616 and 614 is a small mid 19th century building authentically furnished. It is significant because it represents the early small rural dwellings once so common to Tidewater Virginia. One-story, three-bay, frame gable-roofed dwelling covered with white weather boarding and set on short brick piers.

Logan, Utah

Utah Museum Association 2024 Annual Conference

Tuesday, October 8 - Friday, October 11, 2024

Riverwoods Conference Center

Logan, Utah

Hosted by: Utah Museums Association

Museums exist to cultivate connections. Museums educate visitors, preserve objects, tell stories, create intrigue, and generate curiosity while providing an accessible, relevant, credible space for these exchanges to occur.

It’s a tall order to cultivate varied connections within our communities, which requires continued reflection, learning, resources, change, and intentional engagement. As we approach the United States’s 250th anniversary, let’s reflect on how museums are sites for conversations and civic involvement, how representation can connect rather than fragment people, how museum professionals create a sense of shared identity, and even how museums are simply powerful, tangible, places within our communities.

How are you cultivating connections

We hope you will join us at the 2024 Annual Conference hosted by the Utah Museums Association in partnership with the Utah Division of Arts & Museums.
