The American Civil War Museum-Appomattox, in its 10th anniversary year, announced the progress of its recently formed Appomattox Advisory Council.

The group represents citizens from the Appomattox region with an interest in the future of ACWM-Appomattox as a destination for regional, state and national visitors to explore the American Civil War and its legacies. Providing guidance and suggestions on programs and special events, the group meets regularly with museum staff.
