With all the winners in place, Dr. Moore and I are now planning an award ceremony to honor the participants. It is still a rough sketch of an idea but we will soon get things in motion. I will also take this as an opportunity to outreach and show the beauty and opportunity that comes from engaging in the HistoryMakers Digital Archive.

More to come soon!
