Museum Director, Brad Utter and Aine Leader-Nagy, Lead Researcher and Oral Historian for the Making Waterford Our Home series will take the audience through the new online exhibit adding special insight to the process and the results.
The new online exhibit is based on the “Making Waterford Our Home” exhibit series, which highlighted the three main immigrant groups who made Waterford their home. Thanks to planning grants from the New York Council on the Arts and the New York Council for the Humanities, the museum has been able take a year to compile the three exhibits and resources into an online user friendly format that will encourage visitors to explore and share their family history.
