A hands-on, interactive, and immersive “museum on wheels,” the VA250 Mobile Museum Experience titled “Out of Many, One” is housed in a quad-expandable tractor trailer that is traveling throughout Virginia and beyond. The mobile museum brings key stories of Virginia’s rich history to schools, museums, local events, fairs, and more, highlighting every region of the state.
The VA250 Mobile Museum Experience officially hit the road on January 18, 2025, at the Fincastle Resolutions 250th Anniversary event, “A Salute to Southwest Virginia,” in Roanoke, VA.
