About this event

  • 1 hour 30 minutes

John Plashal has not only spent many years identifying and photographing beautifully decaying houses, churches, schools, hospitals and other structures throughout our state but has assimilated into their respective communities to learn about their accompanying backstories. The result is "Stories of an Abandoned Virginia", a unique presentation full of powerful imagery and emotional stories revolving around local landmarks that have been "frozen in time". The event will occur at the Meredith Center for the Arts at the Norfolk Collegiate School in Norfolk, Va.

"From Enslavement to Empowerment: The Story of the Belmead on the James" will begin at 1PM and requires a separate ticket. If you plan to stay for the "double feature", you will be assigned a wristband that will allow you to remain in the theatre in-between events.
