Thomas Balch Library Advisory Commission invites you to the 2026 Loudoun History Awards on Sunday, November 1, at 2:00 p.m. at Thomas Balch Library to celebrate outstanding individuals whose work has enriched our understanding of Loudoun County's history.
This year's honorees, Alicia O. Cohen and Gertrude Ashton Evans, are being recognized for their leadership of Honoring Black Patriots and Loyalists in the American Revolution, a public history initiative that has expanded awareness of the contributions of Black Americans during the Revolutionary era and strengthened local commemoration of America's 250th anniversary. Paul Kreingold will be honored for his research and interpretation of Potomac Marble, bringing greater public appreciation of Loudoun County's geological and historical significance through his writing, lectures, and ongoing scholarship.
The Loudoun History Awards recognize individuals who have made significant contributions to preserving and promoting Loudoun's rich heritage.
