The Graffiti House is a very special
historic treasure. One hundred and
fifty years ago, Confederate and
Union soldiers inscribed timeless
messages on the walls of this
structure. After the war, these
messages were covered with paint and
wallpaper. They were rediscovered in
1992 as the house was being
demolished. |

Although the house is structurally
sound today, volunteers at the house
have seen a significant
deterioration in the condition of
the horse hair plaster walls since
their discovery. As a result of
exposure to temperature variations,
vibration from the nearby rail
traffic, and age related structural
stresses, the artwork on the walls
of the Graffiti House is slowly
disappearing. |

After
one hundred and fifty years the
house needs extensive restoration.
Please make your pledge today to
provide funds in support of needed
restoration work.
