SUMMARY:Lunchbox Learning
DESCRIPTION:American Landmark: Charles Duell and the Rebirth of Middleton Place \nPresented by Virginia Beach\nAuthor Virginia Beach explores the history of Middleton Place and its transformation throughout time. Charles Duell was 31 years old when he inherited Middleton Place from his grandfather in 1969. His sudden inheritance compelled him to leave a finance career in New York and move his family to South Carolina\, where he found the national landmark languishing. Birthplace of a Declaration signer and a First Continental Congress president\, Middleton Place also had been home to hundreds of enslaved men\, women and children. As the new man in charge\, Duell’s challenge was to preserve the history contained in the houses and lands of his forebears\, while also making them sustainable\, relevant and accessible for future generations. \n \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLunchbox Learning is generously sponsored by:

DESCRIPTION:Thursday\, November 16 | 5:30 p.m.\n\n\n\n\nA decade marked by the Civil Rights Movement\, the Vietnam War\, antiwar protests\, political assassinations\, and counterculture movements\, the 1960s in America was a turbulent and divisive era.

Purchase tickets now and take advantage of this rare opportunity to see several items not usually seen by the public. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEach adult ticket reservation includes two\, complimentary drinks tickets. \nThe Museum will serve light hors d’oeuvres with lemonade\, beer\, and wine. \n  \nLive music provided by Jukebox 45. \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nUHM Members                                 Non Members\n     Adults – $20                                                         Adults – $24\n    Children* – $10                                                    Children* – $12\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n*Children’s tickets are for ages 18 and under only.
