Documenting Northern Lincolnshire’s History
North Lincolnshire and North East Lincolnshire Museums are embarking upon an ambitious two-year National Lottery Heritage-funded project. Documenting Northern Lincolnshire’s History will bring audiences closer to the region’s dynamic history.
Project volunteers will work with collections staff to spotlight and preserve stories of the region’s fascinating past, contained across the collections.
The project will focus on the museum’s photography and ephemera collections. A team of collections staff and volunteers will work on researching and digitising these collections. Audiences will share in the team’s discoveries as they curate displays and create digital content.
