| The Shenandoah Valley Folk Art and Heritage Center in Dayton, Rockingham County, Virginia is home to the Harrisonburg-Rockingham Historical Society, an excellent genealogy library, a giftshop and bookstore, and an electric map depiction of General Thomas 'Stonewall' Jackson's Valley Campaign. On permanent display are two fine exhibits of local culture and history: Shenandoah Valley Folk Art is a collection of local treasures in the arts of basket making, pottery, fraktur, metal working, gunsmithing and furniture making just to name a few. "Invincible Spirit: History in the Heart of the Shenandoah" is an extensive exhibit telling the story of local history, from the Native Americans through today. This exhibit features both documents and artifacts from our collection, as well as rich photographic and illustrative content. |
