Project Overview

WDSE will showcase the heritage of the region by creating a documentary that features important periods in the history of the northland. This will give viewers an in depth look at the forces which have shaped the character of this place we call home. One hour-long documentary will be produced and made available to all Minnesota public television stations. Online information will include the documentary in its entirety as well as relevant connections to historical society and museum collections. An online teacher guide will assist educators in using the documentary in the classroom.
