Countless other projects on a variety of topics to suit almost any interest. We offer unparalleled opportunities to undertake research and to develop creative ways to present that research to the public. We’ve done work with foodways, regional music, the textile industry, Native American history, military history, rural life, historic architecture, and women’s history, among others.
