The development of tours and an online gallery of materials related to the life and work of Willa Cather.

The primary purpose of this project is to partially fund the retention of humanities staff for the purpose of delivering public programming in 2021-22. With many prospective visitors remaining reluctant to travel outside of their region, the Foundation must find alternative ways to replace earned revenue it would typically receive while offering new and interesting historic site tours, collections engagement opportunities, and other programs and exhibits that meet its mission and serve its constituency.
