Wreaths Across America’s Mobile Education Exhibit is coming to Merchant Square on July 7
Wreaths Across America’s Mobile Education Exhibit in Merchant Square
Wreaths Across America (WAA) is the organization most recognized for placing over 2.7 million veterans’ wreaths at over 3700 locations nationally and abroad on National Wreaths Across America Day. WAA is proud to announce that as a part of its yearlong mission to remember the fallen, honor those that serve and their families and teach the next generation the value of freedom, its Mobile Education Exhibit (MEE) will make a stop in Williamsburg to share this mission with the community.
The Wreaths Across America Mobile Education Exhibit is a rolling exhibition that brings the local community, veterans, active- duty military and their families together through interactive exhibits, short films, and shared stories. The exhibit serves as a mobile museum, educating visitors about the service and sacrifice of our nation’s heroes as well as to serve as an official ‘welcome home’ station for our nation’s Vietnam Veterans. All veterans, active-duty military, their families, and the local community members are invited and encouraged to visit, take a tour and speak with WAA representatives and volunteers. They can also share more about the national nonprofit, and the work its volunteers do to support our heroes and their communities year-round.
Public tours for the MEE are free and open to the public
The exhibit will be set up in Merchants Square P3 Parking Lot on Friday, July 7, 2023 from 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.
