The I Was Here Project is a call to memory, a reckoning with history, and an invitation to experience our history. By situating this work in public spaces, the project becomes a living archive of shared heritage and healing. It creates reflective, dialogue-driven spaces where participants explore ancestry, identity, and civic legacy.

Thank you for the insight to create this I Was Here project. It is beautiful, historic, and so meaningful.

I have loved the I Was Here project since its inception. Art can often speak to us in a unique and powerful way.
