Kentucky Folklife Program - Allen County Folklife & Oral History Project

Allen County Folklife & Oral History Project

The Allen County Folklife and Oral History Project is a two-year project made possible by a grant from the Laura Goad Turner Charitable Foundation in order to document both the rich history and the vibrant present of Allen County.

Using recorded interviews, photography, and videography, students from Western Kentucky University's Department of Folk Studies and Anthropology cover a broad range of historical and cultural themes, identifying the elements that make community life in the region unique.
