Hillwood Estate, Museum & Gardens presents a way of living that has nearly vanished. It is the only public site in the District of Columbia of a noted collector, philanthropist, and socialite’s home and estate—where presidents, heads of states, ambassadors, politicians, and dignitaries were formally entertained in the mid-twentieth century. Further, it is a premier American example of an “art collector’s personal museum,” preserved intact for posterity. Marjorie Merriweather Post bought Hillwood in 1955 and soon decided her home would be a museum that would inspire and educate the public. Her northwest Washington, D.C. estate endowed the country with the most comprehensive collection of Russian imperial art outside of Russia, a distinguished 18th-century French decorative art collection, and twenty-five acres of serene landscaped gardens and natural woodlands for all to enjoy. Today Hillwood's allure stems from the equally fascinating parts that make up the whole. From the captivating life of Marjorie Post to the exquisitely maintained Mansion and Gardens, the experience of Hillwood outshines even the Fabergé eggs.

One of the most visited sites in the nation’s capital, Ford’s Theatre reopened its doors in 1968, more than a hundred years after the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln. Operated through a partnership between Ford’s Theatre Society and the National Park Service, Ford’s Theatre is the premier destination in the nation’s capital to explore and celebrate Abraham Lincoln’s ideals and leadership principles: courage, integrity, equality and creative expression. The mission of Ford’s Theatre Society is to celebrate the legacy of Abraham Lincoln and explore the American experience through theatre and education. Since the arrival of Director Paul R. Tetreault, critics and the theatregoing public have recognized Ford’s for the superior quality of its artistic programming, with works from the Tony-nominated "Come From Away"​ and nationally acclaimed "Big River "​ to the world premieres of "Meet John Doe,"​ "The Heavens Are Hung In Black,"​ "Liberty Smith,"​ "Necessary Sacrifices,"​ "The Widow Lincoln"​ and "The Guard."​ For its accomplishments, the organization was honored in 2008 with the National Medal of Arts. In the past decade, the mission of Ford’s Theatre Society expanded to include education as a central pillar. This expansion led to the creation and construction of the Center for Education and Leadership, which opened in February 2012. Currently, under the leadership of Board of Trustees Chairman Eric A. Spiegel, the Society is building Ford’s Theatre into a national destination for exploring Lincoln’s ideas and leadership principles and finding new ways to bring Lincoln’s legacy to life for the 21st-century learner.

Since 1889, Preservation Virginia has preserved historic places and raised awareness of the importance of perpetuating and revitalizing Virginia's cultural, architectural and historic heritage, thereby ensuring that historic places are integral parts of the lives of present and future generations. We currently own and operate six historic sites across the state, including: Historic Jamestowne, Patrick Henry's Scotchtown, Smith's Fort Plantation, Cape Henry Lighthouse, Bacon's Castle and the John Marshall House. Without our efforts to help others understand the importance of retaining important parts of our heritage, Virginia would have lost historic sites – and the stories that go with them – forever. It is more important, now than ever, to integrate history and its lessons into tomorrow's culture. Through our work, we strengthen communities, create connections for people and help sustain a strong economy. We will continue to foster the use of historic preservation tools and applications in order to develop and sustain vibrant communities.
