The Valentine

The Valentine, Richmond's history museum, rents parts of its campus at 10th and East Clay Streets downtown. The best known is the garden behind the Wickham House, a courtyard around a fountain that is used for receptions. The Wickham House was built between 1812 and 1815 for the lawyer John Wickham and is a National Historic Landmark. In 1898 it became the first home of the Valentine Museum. The museum also rents a multipurpose room and a terrace. Private meetings are booked through a request form, which the museum asks to receive at least a month ahead. Each reservation includes two spaces in the museum's lot on North 10th Street. Weddings, large parties and corporate events are arranged through the museum's planning partner.
