Connecting the East Coast to Its Past Through Historic Panels
Across New Jersey and New Hampshire, historic panels are transforming how communities engage with their past. From a rest stop in New Hampshire to a historic canoe club on a Delaware River island, these installations uncover underrepresented and forgotten stories, reconnecting people with the narratives that have shaped their local identities.
Behind this meaningful work is History MA alumnus Josh DiPrima, whose passion for storytelling breathes new life into everyday histories. These carefully crafted panels inspire reflection and invite viewers to see their world through the lens of shared heritage, bridging the past and present in ways that deepen connections to community.
