Washington County Oral Histories: A Planning Grant

About This Grant

This project will survey Washington County’s existing oral history collections and plan for the curation of new oral histories. It will identify under-represented communities within the county whose experiences are not well documented, yet are of vital interest to preserve. The project will involve the communities themselves in selecting the most crucially important stories to record and preserve. Finally, this project will recommend a plan for preserving and making existing oral histories available online.
