Tusculum Institute at Sweet Briar College: More Background Information About Dr. Barber's Upcoming Talk This Friday at Lynchburg Museum

https://www.facebook.com/TusculumInstitute

Today we start a Back to School series. Dovetailing with State Archaeologist Mike Barber's talk on the Monacan Tribe (see post below: 3 p.m. Friday, August 21s...t, at the Lynchburg Museum), we feature the Bear Mountain School and Church. The school building was built in 1868, and is a single-story, one-room, horizontal log building. A frame addition was built in 1908. The "New School," dating to the 1930s, is a plain frame building sheathed in weatherboard. Associated with the school is St. Paul's Episcopal Church, a rectangular wood frame building with Gothic style detailing. It was built in 1930, after the original mission church was destroyed by fire. A mission worker's house is also extant and is a small "L"-plan wood frame dwelling. The buildings were added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.

The nomination was authored by Martin C. Perdue, Architectural Historian: http://www.dhr.virginia.gov/…/005-0230_Bear_Mountain_Indian…

Most Amazing College Architecture - Anne Gary Pannell Center Ranked #20

http://topcollegesonline.org/most-amazing-college-architecture/

20. Sweet Briar College’s Pannell Center




An astonishing twenty-one of the 30 campus buildings at Sweet Briar College are listed on the National Historic Registrar, which gives a hint at just how historically important this campus is. Formerly the refectory, what is now the Anne Gary Pannell Center is one of the four original buildings on campus, first constructed in 1906. Designed by Ralph Adam Cram, it’s one of his rare collegiate Georgian Revival buildings. Now home to the art history department, an art gallery and art library, what was once a dining hall remains an incredible piece of architecture.
