y of Virginia’s traveling “Flora of Virginia” exhibition is making the rounds across Virginia. Check the schedule below to see when it’s visiting your area.

The exhibition highlights key features of the larger exhibition of the same name that the Library staged in 2014.

Both exhibitions were curated by Bland Crowder, executive director of the Flora of Virginia Project.
