Hi! I am Lauren Wheeler, I currently work with the Alberta Museums Association as Program Lead for the Recognized Museum Program. Prior to this I was the project assistant for the exhibition “Chop Suey on the Prairies” at the Royal Alberta Museum, and exhibit coordinator for “Sam Steele: Journey of a Canadian Hero” put on by the Bruce Peel Special Collections Library. I also write for Active History.
This is blog is a combination of the three areas of history I am passionate about; public history, visual history, and environmental history. Occasionally travel appears but only as it relates to the three fields listed above.
The opinions expressed and research summarized in this blog are purely my own and do not reflect that of my employer.
