Preparing the Child . . . Preserving a LegacyLiving History is a multi-dimensional way of teaching history. Your style of interpreting history will heighten the experience of your audience. As a presenter you are the conductor of a symphony, and your words music. At some point during your presentation, your audience will begin to visualize your words, note for note, and start to see themselves as part of your symphony.

Our Purpose…
|
Recruit emerging young interpreters, living historians, and reenactors.
Teach them how to gather, research, archive and interpret historical data. Help them develop an interpretive outline and obtain their first set of historical clothing and accessories. Assist with the cost of travel to and from interpretive programs and events. Plan, Host, and attend heritage programs and events. |
Raise funds for outreach programs in schools and recreation centers.
Develop a historic preservation program to protect and preserve architectural sites, and structures in the communities of color and other marginalized groups. Produce webinars, podcasts, book readings, and online programs. |
Each One…Teach One...We are on a never-ending quest to learn all we can about our ancestors and pass their legacy down. Our children deserve to know about this country's richly diverse history. One day our children will inherit this deeply divided world, so let us give them the tools they'll need so they too can rise and meet every challenge they may have to endure.
