Alexandria's museums are closed as the City of Alexandria and its residents try to flatten the curve and stop the spread of coronavirus.
In response, Historic Alexandria has come up with creative ways to share stories of Alexandria and its history.
In announcing the new program, Historic Alexandria said:
