Description
Join your host Hermene Hartman as we talk about the wonderful historic house museums that exist right here in Chicago. These homes that belonged to important activists, artists, politicians & industrialists of the past have been preserved & restored because of their architectural merit & the significance of those who lived in them. We are joined by Angela Ford & Wendy Muhammed who are both working to preserve important historic buildings here in Chicago.
We discuss the importance of maintaining historic buildings & why they are valuable artifacts that can teach us about the history of our city & help us to honor and maintain the memory of the great people who lived in them. Our guests discuss how they are using modern technology to digitize the Black history of Chicago within these historic houses in order to create a more immersive experience for young people who visit these sites.
We discuss the logical hurdles required to maintain the authenticity of historic houses & to achieve landmark status to further protect & honor historic buildings in Chicago. Our guests discuss why it is important for them to self-fund the restoration and maintenance of these buildings in order to retain control over their image & integrity.
Join us as we discuss all this and much more in this enlightening conversation about historic Chicago buildings, here on N’DIGO Studio Podcast.
