The Whitesbog Preservation Trust is seeking a one-year $100,000 Prototype Grant for the Deep in the Pines Mobile Experience, to be produced by Whitesbog Preservation Trust and their partner Night Kitchen Interactive. The Deep in the Pines Mobile Experience is an AR/VR mobile application that interprets the history of Whitesbog and the rich and layered past of the Pine Barrens. Crafted in close collaboration with some of the leading scholars in their fields, this project will highlight how Whitesbog Historic Farm and Village has been shaped over centuries through the interaction of nature, technology, and human effort.
