Highway 89

One of the best projects I have worked on in my time at the Utah State Archives was a collaborative effort to document the history along Highway 89. The project culminated in an IMLS grant (through the ILEAD initiative) that provided an opportunity for me to collaborate with colleagues from the Utah State University, Southern Utah University, and the State Library to create the Highway89 project site and a commissioned piece of art (above) by Utah artist, John Clark. Sadly, the project’s momentum diminished and it has now entered into the realm of legacy, though there is always potential to pick it up again.
