The Island Oral History Project

This project seeks the collection of island traditions and heritage including oral history, historic photographs and documents of local significance for reservation and study.

Fast disappearing are the “tradition bearers” who still carry the knowledge and skills of the traditional island occupations of commercial fishing, net making, waterfowl hunting, boat building, decoy carving, animal husbandry, quilting, as well as knowledge of local island lore and history.
