The Through the Decades: DMV Classic Car Show will showcase vintage cars to "modern marvels" and is free and open to all ages. The event will run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the DMV, 2300 West Broad Street.
The event will include a charity component to support Make-A-Wish Greater Virginia. Proceeds from car registration and donations will benefit the organization, which grants life-changing wishes to children and their families.
“We often hear from parents that the wish experience gives their child the strength needed to continue their medical journey,” said Sheri Lambert, president and CEO of Make-A-Wish Greater Virginia. “We’re so thankful to partner together to help grant these life-changing wishes at such an amazing celebration of automotive and DMV history.”
“We are so excited to partner with the Colonial Rod Club to welcome our community to celebrate the reason DMV started all those years ago, our cars,” said DMV Commissioner Gerald Lackey in a statement. “Seeing the passage of time through the cars is truly wonderful. And we are honored and humbled knowing that proceeds from this event are going to the amazing work that Make-A-Wish Greater Virginia is doing around our great Commonwealth.”
