The Discovery is our smallest English ship, but this is actually our smallest vessel that goes out on the water. @mysticseaport can you show us your smallest vessel? #museumsarefuntoo #museumpingpong

Ships' Interpreter Kelly shows off the traverse board, a 17th c. tool for marking a ship's direction and speed. @mysticseaport show us a 19th c. navigation tool. #museumsarefuntoo #museumpingpong

Jamestown Settlement sits on the James River, named after King James (VI & I) who authorized the 1606 charter allowing the English to settle and explore the Chesapeake. @mysticseaport tell us about your river. #museumsarefuntoo #museumpingpong

Hey @mysticseaport wanna play get to know you ping pong with us? We thought we’d start by being “knot”ty. Here’s one of Ships’ Asst Supervisor Don’s favorite knots, the flying figure 8. What’s one of yours? #museumsarefuntoo #museumpingpong
In honor of the 4th of July tomorrow, we share our pair of bald eagles that nest above our recreated Paspahegh town. @VLMuseum can you show us one of your animals that symbolizes America? #museumsarefuntoo #museumpingpong

Those chickens are gorgeous @historyisfunorg! We think our Barred Owl is pretty great too! Barred owls prefer densely wooded areas and will frequent swamps across the southeast - unlike other owls they have even been documented hunting fish and crustaceans🦉#museumpingpong

We have a non-native species at Jamestown that gets everyone's attention! The English brought chickens with them, and today we have the Red Dorking heritage breed on-site. @VLMuseum can you show us one of your wild birds to go with our domesticated ones? #museumpingpong

"Raccoon" comes from the Powhatan language. John Smith recorded it as "aroughcun". Other Powhatan names include amonsoquath for black bear, onxe for fox, and accomodemsk for turtle. @VLMuseum can you show us one of these native animals? #museumsarefuntoo #museumpingpong
Englishman Wm Strachey wrote that some Powhatan men wore in holes in their ears a small green and yellow colored live snake near half a yard in length. @VLMuseum tell us about one of the snakes you have #museumsarefuntoo #museumpingpong

What about @MarinersMuseum? Can you teach us about the type of boat in the image? #museumpingpong #museumsarefuntoo
Hey @VLMuseum wanna play get-to-know-you ping pong with us this week? We use 400+ yr old images like this to understand how the Powhatan used the riverways. Can you show us one of these animals you have today? #museumsarefuntoo #museumpingpong

Our gallery has this life-size depiction of Geo. Washington that once stood in the U.S. Capitol. Not only was he the 1st Pres, but he was here for the Siege of Yorktown. @VirginiaMOCA show us something depicting someone important to your area #museumsarefuntoo #museumpingpong

Our "Forgotten Soldier" special exhibition at the American Revolution Museum @ Yorktown is here til 7/8. It has a Titus Kaphar sculpture that asks visitors to look at history through a new lens. @VirginiaMOCA tell us about your "Shifting Gaze" exhibition. #museumpingpong

This portrait of King George III was painted between 1762 & 1784 and is our tallest at 8.5 feet. @VirginiaMOCA show us one of your tallest paintings. #museumsarefuntoo #museumpingpong For more on the portrait's restoration, check out this video: https://t.co/u3pHgw6bzQ

We don't have much in the way of modern art, but we were lucky to have artist Austin Miles create some great pieces for our My Tenacity! and Finding Angelo events last year. @VirginiaMOCA we'd love to see one of yours that celebrates women. #museumsarefuntoo #museumpingpong

Hey @VirginiaMOCA wanna play get-to-know-you ping pong with us this week? Here's our portrait of Rebecca Rolfe (aka Pocahontas). Can you show us something of yours depicting a well-known person? #museumsarefuntoo #museumpingpong
