LANSING SCHOOL ARCHIVE
The Lansing School Archive will be a multi-generational oral history project featuring the former students and staff of the historic Lansing School. Built in 1937-38 the Lansing School stone building is a WPA era historic property. In the 1950's additional buildings were added to the school’s campus, one of which is now home to Buddy Holler, a full-service audio recording studio.
This project is being produced with the support of Mountain BizWorks and Invest Appalachia.
