Indiana Bicentennial Celebration 2016
Legacy Projects > A Deep Connection to the Land – Cultivating Community in Lyles Station A Deep Connection to the Land – Cultivating Community in Lyles Station
The Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture visited Gibson County for a soil collection event at one of the oldest family farms in the community, the Greer family farm near Princeton, IN, on April 30, 2016. The event honored the resilience, history and heritage of the community of Lyles Station, revealing the long presence of African Americans at the heart of American history and culture. African Americans as Hoosier pioneers is a story that has rarely been recognized and this project will bring this aspect of Indiana’s history to light. Smithsonian curator Paul Gardullo and members of the Greer family dug the soil, which will be included in the “Power of Place” exhibit in the new museum opening September 2016.
