Richmond Cemetery Collaboratory              

In 2017, faculty across disciplines from the University of Richmond and Virginia Commonwealth University, along with members of the Friends of East End volunteer group, formed a learning community called the East End Cemetery Collaboratory. Since that time, the renamed Collaboratory has expanded its partners to include the Descendants Council of Greater Richmond, the Woodland Restoration Foundation, Barton Heights Cemeteries, Woodland Cemetery, and, at various times, Oakwood Arts, the Star of Benevolence Society, and the City of Richmond’s Department of Parks, Recreation & Community Facilities.
