Thunder BRidge

CAMPGROUND, ART STUDIOS, EVENT SPACE

Who we are

Thunder BRidge is an arts and cultural center tucked into the Blue Ridge mountains of Virginia

A family-owned campground, artist community, and event space, Thunder BRidge hosts 100 acres of rich history, historic buildings, and idyllic woodland.

The property was built in the early 1930s as a Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) camp, then converted to a federal reformatory, followed by a boys juvenile correctional center.

In 2021, the Pannabeckers purchased the land and turned it into the beautiful space it is today.
