Asterisks in the Grand Narrative of History gathers together not just artists, but also curators and institutions in the creative process. The exhibition features nine artists, spans galleries at Longwood University and Hampden-Sydney College, and is curated by Jay Simple (Visiting Assistant Professor in Photography at Longwood University) and Emma Steinkraus (Assistant Professor of Fine Art at Hampden-Sydney College).

For the past thirteen years, the Longwood Center for the Visual Arts has partnered with Crossroads Community Services on their annual summer camp, Camp Unity. Each year Camp Unity serves over 90 adults with a range of abilities and provides them with an opportunity to enjoy all the traditional summer camp activities while promoting a sense of community and camaraderie among the participants.
