African American Heritage in the Ozarks Travel Exhibit

Come see a new traveling exhibit by the State Historical Society of Missouri as we share stories and preserves the voices and memories of the people who call or have called the Ozarks home. Through a generous grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities and Missouri Humanities, the State Historical society created an extensive list of primary and secondary sources related to African American life in the region. The project has provided public programming in numerous Ozarks communities, developed physical and digital exhibits, and conducted more than two dozen oral histories. This exhibit shares their stories of life in the Ozarks.
