International Museum of the Horse

Log Number: MA-10-18-0183-18

The International Museum of the Horse will document and archive the history of African Americans in the horse industry and make it accessible through an online interactive website. The website will serve as a resource for K-12 students and teachers, college-level students and teachers, historians and scholars, on-site visitors, and African American descendants. The museum will work with a website development firm and hire a digital project manager to plan the design of the website by engaging potential audiences, partners, collaborators, and advisors in front-end, formal, and informal evaluation methods; prototyping; and user experience testing. The museum will engage multiple additional partners, including college professors and their classes, to find and digitize primary documents and other resources to populate the site prior to public launch. K-12 teachers will assist with the development of educational resources related to the site.
