The Jeffersons at Shadwell (Yale 2010) uses material culture to explore the social history of this late colonial Virginia plantation that was home to Jane and Peter Jefferson, their eight children (including Thomas), and an enslaved workforce of about sixty African-Americans.  Archaeological excavations at Shadwell revealed new ways to understand how powerful families maintained social, business, and family connections across Virginia, from the Virginia-North Carolina dividing line to the Northern Neck.  Additionally, it revealed a network of enslaved families connected among plantations across generations.  Research at Shadwell recasts Virginia's "frontier" history and the early years of Thomas Jefferson. 
 
Susan Kern is Associate Professor and Director of the Historic Preservation Program at University of Maryland School of Architecture, Planning, and Preservation.  She directed field excavations at Shadwell as part of Monticello's efforts to understand Jefferson's boyhood home.  Her book, The Jeffersons at Shadwell (Yale 2010), details archaeological evidence that reveals how the Jeffersons and the people they enslaved established families and maintained connections across colonial Virginia.

InsideOut Band is a group of professional musicians from Richmond Va., performing in Virginia, North Carolina, Washington D.C., Maryland, and West Virginia for many years. Some InsideOut members have performed across the United States and abroad including Ireland and Cancun.
InsideOut Band’s musical influences include Chicago, Tower of Power, Blood Sweat and Tears, Earth Wind & Fire, and Kool and the Gang. Also artists like Michael Jackson, Marvin Gaye, Al Green, Luther Vandross, Prince, the Time, and too many more to list.
Having both female and male lead singers offers InsideOut the opportunity to play a wider range of material. Additionally, it doesn’t hurt to have two more lead singers who also play instruments. In all, four lead vocalists add to great harmonies as well as lead vocals.
Add to the vocals the explosive horn section, playing sectional lines like in Make Me Smile to Tower of Power’s Diggin on James Brown, it is a powerful combination. The Horn section consists of four horns, Trumpet, Trombone Baritone, and Tenor Sax, and gives InsideOut the diversity to play lots of different styles from jazz, swing, and R&B to funk and more.
Tickets are $10.00 and can be purchased online or at the gate. Picnic baskets are welcomed but absolutely NO GLASS, ALCOHOL, or DOGS. All bags are subject to search for restricted items and for safety of our guests.
