The Tinner Hill Heritage Foundation was founded in 1997 with a mission to present the African American legacy and promote racial reconciliation in Northern Virginia. The Foundation manages the historic sites, provides social justice workshops and puts on the annual Tinner Hill Music Festival.More about Edwin B.
