The Do-Drop Inn

The Curate 757 series explores the thriving art scene in Hampton Roads. Each week, the program features an area artist. Each person works in a different medium - from painting, to sculpture and photography, to the spoken word. Each episode originally aired as a part of the parent “Curate” series, which also offers profiles of national artists.

Season 3 Episode 8 | 10m 9s | CC

From its beginnings during the Civil Rights Movement, The Do-Drop Inn's patrons witnessed momentous events over their lifetimes, and the Do-Drop has come to represent a cultural and historical pillar of the Eastern Shore community. We've captured some of the history and memories for the benefit of future generations. Funding provided by the Virginia Foundation for the Humanities.
