This summer, Menokin will embark on a $1.67 million project to build back Menokin's front door and improve access to Francis Lightfoot Lee's study thanks to a game-changing grant of $1.25M from the Virginia 250 Preservation Fund. 

We invite you to join us at the ruin for a celebratory evening to recognize what we've accomplished and where we are going next -- all made possible with the support of Menokin's longstanding community of donors, including you!

This summer's work is our largest project in a decade. We dedicate it to the memory of Martin Kirwan King, Menokin's founding director, and his wife, Tish. Thirty years after the creation of the Menokin Foundation, Martin's vision still drives our work.
