Lincoln Wardrobe Exhibit Extended The rare opportunity to see “History and Hollywood” together at historic Centre Hill Museum has been extended through the continued generosity of Director Steven Spielberg and DreamWorks Studios. Key costumes designed by Academy Award-nominated, Wardrobe Designer Joanna Johnston for the blockbuster film, LINCOLN, (which was filmed in Petersburg and Richmond) will remain on display into October in the very rooms visited by the Lincoln party in April 1865. While experiencing LINCOLN in Petersburg, also enjoy exploring the Old Towne “set” for the film with a self-guided “Filming LINCOLN” walking tour of the various locations used in the film in addition to a self-guided “Walk in Lincoln’s Final Footsteps” tour. Both brochures can be obtained from the Petersburg Visitor Center, located at 19 Bollinbrook Street, which is open daily from 9:00am to 5:00pm. For additional information, please call (804) 733-2401.
