PRESERVING PLACE THROUGH STORY (WHAT WE DO)

We preserve place through story to ensure community voices are heard, shared, and valued through the preservation of cultural memory. We use storytelling to engage publics with oral histories and contextual narratives to document the past.  One such way we take action against systemic urban issues, and top-down development, has been through our flagship podcast, Urban Roots and various programs. 

We are an organization that connects people and place through public history, community preservation, and urban planning by amplifying histories that depict shared cultural experiences. We expand the breadth of civic engagement through a multi-disciplinary approach to help inform a better future, so that development just doesn't happen to communities without their input and involvement.
