The Down Home team The Down Home project staff is ably anchored by noted Southern Jewish historian Leonard Rogoff and by Emmy award-winning documentary filmmaker Steven Channing.
The museum exhibition will be designed by Darcie Fohrman, one of the most sought after creators of interactive museum exhibits. The Levine Museum of the New South in Charlotte is our partner in exhibit production.
Philanthropists, community leaders, and scholars from all parts of North Carolina and beyond have joined the Down Home advisory and planning boards. Steering committees for a $1.25 million campaign are being established in all of North Carolina’s major communities.
