Virginia Guide Service

Club Description

We are a public-service-based organization dedicated to sharing historical knowledge of the University of Virginia and the Charlottesville community with tourists, visitors, and students. We are entirely student-run and aim to foster student contributions in the process of preserving and sharing history. By giving students the responsibility to document, contextualize, and guide conversations about the University’s legacy, we create a more engaged student body that takes ownership of its institution’s history. We elevate lesser-known stories, diverse perspectives, and evolving interpretations of history which remain an integral part of the University experience.
