My mother and I visited this home and garden today and enjoyed learning about Anne Spencer and her involvement in the Harlem Renaissance and the dedication of her whole family to improving the lives of African Americans. This place is truly a gem of Lynchburg and an absolute must see! You will get a personal tour from Anne Spencers beautiful granddaughter who has tirelessly worked to restore the property and to preserve her grandmothers legacy. I will highly recommend it to family and friends. You wont be disappointed!

A wonderful place to visit. Tours are given by Anne Spencers granddaughter who brings the house and garden to life. Anne and her husband Edward were remarkable people.

My daughter and I visited and greatly enjoyed the tour of the home and gardens. Anne Spencers grand-daughter led our tour and provided such heartwarming stories about her family. It is humbling to walk through a home that was resided in and visited by so many great artists. This is truly a national treasure.
