Historic Evergreen Cemetery Clean Up

AIA Richmond’s Community and Government Affairs Committee invites you to join us during Architecture Month for a morning of volunteer service dedicated to cleaning and helping to preserve this significant site.

Since its founding in 1891 by leaders of Richmond’s African American community, Historic Evergreen Cemetery has served as a powerful monument to Black achievement, community life, and family bonds.

Important Volunteer Information:

• Volunteers should dress according to the weather (more layers for colder months of the year).
• Volunteers should wear long pants, preferably jeans to protect your legs from scratches and insects.
• Volunteers must wear safety gloves. (Gloves will be provided. You may bring a personal pair, if preferred.)
• A light snack and water will be provided.
• Volunteers should wear tennis shoes or boots. (No flip flops or thin shoes)

Please sign up below by Friday, April 23.
