Fields & Feathers: Hunting at Deep River Lodge, 1895-1935

Open this Friday through January 31, 2024

Hunting lodges were a turn of the 20th Century phenomenon in the Piedmont that have long since been forgotten. This exhibit features photos and artifacts from Deep River Lodge, which was an exceptional example of these Piedmont retreats.
