Our Vision

To be the premier source for

experiencing Richmond’s history,

using its past to inform the

present and to shape the future.

Our Mission

To engage, educate and challenge

a diverse audience by collecting,

preserving and interpreting

Richmond’s history.

The Valentine has a tradition of developing partnerships in the community and inspiring generations of Richmonders to be active participants in their own history.

Your membership and support enable the Valentine to

preserve, expand and interpret the unique collection

that tells Richmond stories. Photographs, maps,

textiles, sculpture, toys, costumes, furniture and

so much more teach us about our past and help us

imagine our future.
