Events › Founding Frenemies: Hamilton and the Virginians Traveling Exhibition

Lin-Manuel Miranda’s award-winning Broadway production Hamilton propelled our nation’s first Secretary of the Treasury into a legendary status not held since his untimely death in 1804. Miranda’s narrative—based on the work of Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Ron Chernow—tells the story of a man who overcame all odds to shape, inspire, and scandalize the newborn America.

Visit the library to explore Alexander Hamilton’s relationships with the founding fathers and experience the critical role that Virginia and Virginians played in shaping the life of the nation’s first Secretary of Treasury.

Founding Frenemies: Hamilton and the Virginians is organized by the Virginia Museum of History & Culture and presented by TowneBank with support from the Society of the Cincinnati in the State of Virginia. Sponsored for Central Rappahannock Regional Library by Tour Stafford.
