Oral History Project
FoMA’s Oral History Project, begun in 2014, records for posterity the voices of Lincoln architects and homeowners associated with the modern movement(1937-1970). Video and audio recordings completed to date include homeowners discussing their experiences of living in modern houses designed by local architects. We are grateful for initial funding in 2014 and 2017 from the Lincoln Cultural Council.
If you would like to share your experiences of living in or designing a modern house (or if you know of someone we should contact), we would love to hear from you.
