CHESAPEAKE, Va. (WAVY) — The Great Bridge Battlefield and Waterways History Museum is hosting the “Give Me Liberty: Virginia and Forging of a Nation” traveling exhibit until Aug. 23.
The exhibition, which is being loaned in a partnership with the Jamestown-Yorktown Foundation, focuses on Virginia’s leading role during the American Revolution.
This includes prominent figures such as George Washington, Thomas Jefferson and Patrick Henry while also exploring the impact of regular people during the time that molded or were a model of democratic government we see today.
