Belle Grove’s grounds and Beverley B. Shoemaker Welcome Center (which includes the Museum Shop, exhibits, and restrooms) are open Tuesday-Saturday 10 a.m.-4 p.m. and Sunday 1-5 p.m. We are closed on Mondays.

Start with brunch at the Beverley B. Shoemaker Welcome Center and learn how the 1918 Barn was constructed and used. Then tour nearby barns with John Adamson, manager of
Shenandoah County Historical Society’s Barns Program.

Celebrate the coming of fall and learn how to stich a beautiful tree covered in autumn foliage. This half-day retreat will begin with social time over lunch, then instruction by experienced stitchers, and then a tour of Belle Grove. The workshop is open to students of all skill levels, and no experience is required and all the materials you will need for this project are included in your registration fee!

This private event hosted especially for Belle Grove’s guests will feature a multi-course meal with locally sourced produce and the Café’s favorite wines. The date has been changed to Saturday, October 10, 2020.

Due to concerns about the ongoing pandemic, reenactment activities at Cedar Creek Battlefield Foundation have been canceled and living history activities at Belle Grove will be limited.

Inspired by the architectural features of Belle Grove you will have a chance to become a needlework architect and stitch one of the most famous historic buildings in Winchester, Virginia--the Old Court House. This half-day retreat will begin a tour of the Belle Grove Manor House, then instruction by experienced stitchers, and end with socializing over tea.
