Since 1992, the Portsmouth Museums Foundation has raised over $10 million to support the Children’s Museum of Virginia. Our mission is to provide tax-deductible private support to the Children’s Museum of Virginia and act as a receiving agent for tax-deductible gifts for other City museums, which are educational and economic assets for all of Hampton Roads.
How the Foundation Supports the CMVA Annually
Bunny Hop 5K Run
The Bunny Hop 5k & 1 Mile Family Fun Run is a family-friendly event where participants can enjoy a flat, fast, picturesque course along the Portsmouth Waterfront and fun activities afterward. All proceeds benefit the Portsmouth Museums Foundation in support of the Children’s Museum of Virginia.
The next Bunny Hop will be held on April 1, 2023. Sign up here and get event updates on Facebook.

Dine & Discover: The Children’s Museum of Virginia
