| We the People of Tennessee: Telling Museum on Main Street Stories Digitally II
To support increased collaboration and programming among the five Tennessee communities hosting the traveling exhibition, Between Fences, by digitizing the local research and developing a shared online resource for maps and narratives.
Using software, developed by our 2004 We the People project, that enables us to project a narrative layer upon GIS maps, this project will make Internet accessible the results of the history projects that are a part of our tour of the Museum on Main Street exhibit Between Fences. The 5 hosts selected for our 4th exhibit tour will work with scholars and volunteers to explore the exhibit themes locally, digitize the research content, and develop a kiosk for Between Fences enabling audiences to access these maps and digital narratives.
