Welcome to the
​Carver 4-County
Museum
We all have a story to share. 76 years of memories, in the historical context of our day, live and grow within our museum.
​
It is a history of four counties of African Americans and the high school that shaped an entire region. What is that high school? The George Washington Carver Regional High School in Rapidan, Virginia. What were the four counties: Culpeper, Orange, Rappahannock, and Madison.
We're a WINNER!!!
