Current employment opportunities
Oral History Project Sign Up
Continuing an initiative that launched in 2019, the Madeline Island Museum is working with Bad River Tribal Youth Media to collect oral history interviews that document the island’s history. The goal is to collect as many voices, representing as many cultures and backgrounds, as possible, before these memories are lost to time.
These interviews can focus on a single person or be conducted as a group conversation. Please allow an hour for the interview.
