Our nation’s origin story began in Williamsburg. The Foundation oversees the world’s largest American living history museum and advances preservation, education and civic engagement goals in pursuit of our mission: That the future may learn from the past.


So many of the events at the core of our nation’s origin story happened right here in Williamsburg. The Power of Place Campaign focuses on preserving this past, telling fact-based stories and creating opportunities for civic engagement — because teaching the lessons of our past can positively shape the present and build a brighter future for all Americans and the world.
