Lee-Fendall House Museum and Garden
614 Oronoco St, Alexandria, VA 22314, USA- Spaces for 200 Guests
Built in 1785 in the historic district of Old Town Alexandria, Virginia, the Lee-Fendall House was home to 37 members of the Lee family and later served as the Grosvenor Branch Hospital, treating wounded Union soldiers during the Civil War. Generations of enslaved and free African Americans also lived and worked on the property, and labor leader John L. Lewis, founder of the Congress of Industrial Organizations, later resided in the home during the height of his career. The Virginia Trust for Historic Preservation opened the house as a museum in 1974, and it is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places and the Virginia Landmarks Register. Behind the house sits a half-acre walled garden that traces back to a Victorian-era redesign by the Cazenove family in the 1850s, with a rose garden, an herb garden, and magnolia, black walnut, and ginkgo trees planted around 1852. Entered through a gate on Washington Street, the garden is free and open to the public whenever the museum is open and has been certified as a National Wildlife Federation Wildlife Habitat since 2019. Today the Lee-Fendall House Museum and Garden offers guided tours, exhibitions, and educational programming exploring nearly two centuries of American history, from the Lee family's residency through the property's role as a Civil War hospital and its twentieth-century labor history.

Woodlawn & Pope-Leighey House
9000 Richmond Hwy, Alexandria, VA 22309, USA- Spaces for 300 Guests
As a National Trust for Historic Preservation site, we believe that all Americans have a right to learn about their own history by visiting the places that surround us. This historic site is dedicated to filling in the gaps of our cultural heritage, particularly the stories of enslaved and freed Black communities, as well as the stories of their descendants. Take a look at our interpretation themes. All of our properties are on 126 historic acres in Alexandria, Virginia, and they include two historic properties and one working farm. It was built in 1805, and it was given to Nelly Custis and Lawrence Lewis as a gift by President George Washington. The site was used as a plantation, and the couple enslaved over 90 people while operating it. The Pope-Leighey House, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright, is also located on the grounds, where visitors can explore and be inspired by the Usonian architecture and a vision for affordable, well-designed housing that Wright envisioned. We co-own the land with our partner, Arcadia Farm for Sustainable Agriculture, whose mission is to create a more equitable and sustainable local food system in the greater Los Angeles area. Our activities are spread out throughout the grounds and trails, and they are designed to promote learning as well as wellbeing as well as respite and enjoyment of the natural environment and its history. Immersive experiences, exhibitions, performances, and thought-provoking art are used to bring these stories and discussions to life. Across the grounds of Woodlawn and Pope-Leighey House, two historic homes situated on 120 acres of agricultural land farmed by our non-profit partner Arcadia, are intertwined tales of community transformation. Visit our exhibits and learn about our virtual and on-site programming to get a sense of the many ways that our site explores our long history and raises the voices of enslaved people. Learn more about our rich history and our steadfast commitment to telling the complete story of America by visiting this page. Every celebration is celebrated with us because we are a space where everyone is welcome.
