Museum

Founded in 1976, the Isle of Wight County Museum tells the story of the county through its interactive exhibits including a turn-of-the-century country store as well as displays interpreting colonial history, the Smithfield ham industry, the Blackwater River, the Civil War and the Cold War.

Now you can see what's happening 24/7 with Smithfield's oldest celebrity! (The ham in the center is THE ham!) The next time you're in town, stop by to rub (pork) shoulders with this A-lister...because everyone is a little bit of a ham.
