Funding for the design of the Virginia Museum of Natural History campus in Waynesboro has been included in the state budget, which will allow the museum to move forward with design work for the new museum facility.
“This is an exciting milestone in the museum’s pursuance of a permanent presence in the Blue Ridge and Shenandoah Valley region,” said Faye Cooper, chair of the VMNH Board of Trustees’ Waynesboro Advocacy Committee. “With this bill, VMNH is now able to move beyond the conceptual design stage of a new museum facility in Waynesboro, to the development of detailed designs.”
