Alabama in the Making, exhibit opening

Alabama in the Making, a new traveling exhibit for the Alabama Folklife Association, opened this past weekend at the Tennessee Valley Museum of Art, Tuscumbia. Kelton Design planned and designed five oral history stations with one representing each region of the state. Each station has an iPad with both audio and video recording of oral histories collected as part of a Smithsonian grant and the Alabama Community Scholars Institute. All of these collection are maintained at the Alabama Department of Archives and History. This exhibit is intended to make the rich oral histories of Alabamians come alive and accessible to the public. I hope you have a chance to see the exhibit when it comes to your part of Sweet Home Alabama. Please repost this so we can spread the word about the exhibit.
