The Wall that Heals

In Conjunction with the Military Support Fair, the HRCC is proud to welcome The Wall that Heals to Harrisonburg.  The Wall that Heals is a touring half scale replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C.  The Wall is an opportunity for many who have not experienced the memorial to do so and to begin to heal.

The Wall will be on the grounds of Ralph Sampson Park, located next to the Simms Center, April 19-22.  A grand opening celebration will be held on April 19 @ 3:00 p.m.

It is free to the public and open 24 hours.
