Tackett's Mill at Lake Ridge, Virginia Time Capsule at Clearbrook Center of the Arts
Want to see a bit of history and enjoy some art at the same time?
The Time Capsule was opened May 29, 2019
Come by any weekend, on a Saturday or Sunday from 1 to 4 pm, at the Clearbrook Center of the Arts which is located on the back lower side of the Tackett's Mill Shopping Center in Lake Ridge, Virginia (Woodbridge area) and not just see the historic Time Capsule, but the Prince William Art Society (PWAS) art gallery. It is totally free to come see!
The Prince William Art Society is a local member art group that began 50 years ago in 1971. The group is very fortunate to have the use as the "Artists in Residence" at Clearbrook to use it as an art gallery. In one of the rooms is the Time Capsule.
A Point in Our Time
The glass case holds the previous contents of the Time Capsule from 1985. The Prince William County children (at that time) offered various items that were in use and part of the history of the '80s. I can't help but add, "Boy, has time changed!" Especially when reading the various things written from that time.
The actual Time Capsule itself, which is to be removed at some time soon.
The Mystery of the Benches
Currently, next to the Time Capsule is one of the several painted benches at Clearbrook. I'll find out about those and update you when I have more info...
