The work of Historic New Harmony happens because of real people who care deeply about this place and its stories. Some of us spend our days with fragile documents and historic photographs. Others lead tours, develop programs for school groups, plan events or work with community partners. But the truth is, we all wear many hats. On any given day, you might find us doing all of the above and more.
What brings us together is a commitment to making New Harmony's history accessible and meaningful. We want students to get excited about primary sources. We want researchers to find what they're looking for in our archives. We want visitors to leave with new questions. And we want our neighbors in New Harmony to feel connected to the work we do.
Whether you're planning your first visit, deep into a research project, or exploring ways we might work together, we'd love to hear from you. That's what we're here for.
