Menokin Foundation
www.menokin.orgMenokin is the 1769 home of Signer of the Declaration of Independence, Francis Lightfoot Lee and Rebecca Tayloe Lee. This former manor house remains one of Virginia’s best examples of original colonial architecture. Built near the Rappahannock River, the ruin is nestled among 500 nearly-untouched acres of historical landscape, 325 of which are part of the Rappahannock River Valley National Wildlife Refuge. OUR MISSION is to use the historic ruin and the surrounding built and natural environments to transcend the traditional house museum experience. We use contemporary methods to create opportunities for the public to contemplate and explore the building of America. Our approach reimagines how individuals connect to history and promotes provocative dialogue around our nation’s founding ideals and realities. The Menokin Foundation is a 501(c)3 nonprofit that is supported wholly by philanthropic contributions from individuals, foundations, and corporations.
