Chapel Hill Public Library - Community History Practices
Chapel Hill Community History staff work with local people to document and share untold, ignored, and erased stories from Chapel Hill's history. Our work is an intentional, collaborative co-creation with history makers, historians, local government, and community members. Together we initiate, design, and share public history projects, programs, and exhibits.
Chapel Hill Community History is a program based inside Chapel Hill Public Library, a department of The Town of Chapel Hill.
Thank you to our partners!
