We cordially invite you to join us for this
year’s Guinea Jubilee Unveiling. Be the first to
find out who this year’s Grand Marshal is and
to preview our new print! And don’t forget to
bring money so you can take your shot at being
the high bidder for the #1 print!
The Guinea Jubilee sponsors an
art contest for adults and children each year.
The winner of the adult art contest has their
artwork turned into posters that are sold during
the Jubilee. These posters have become
collectors items. The original artwork is
auctioned off to help fund the Guinea Jubilee.
The winner of the children's art contest has
their artwork featured on the cover of the
Guinea Jubilee events program.
At the unveiling you will have
the opportunity to purchase various collectible
items. Each year the Guinea Jubilee Committee
selects a different T-shirt design for the
festival. The T-shirts, along with wooden
collectibles of various buildings around Guinea,
posters, artist prints, and Guinea Jubilee
memorabilia will be on display. Start your
Guinea collection today.
The history and story of Guinea
is displayed throughout the Ruritan Hall during
the unveiling. You will have the chance to learn
about the wonderful history of these watermen
and their families. Each display contains a
piece of the past that helped shape this
beautiful part of Virginia.
