Today is our last scheduled day at the ARC. If you haven't had a chance to tell your story, please get in touch with us by email or phone - we still want to hear from you. Big thanks to everyone who has participated so far!
Bakken Oral History Project
Share
The Bakken is all over the news. It’s on people’s minds. It’s making our country run. We’re a part of history, but has your story been told?
The State Historical Society of North Dakota is partnering with a University of Minnesota research team to collect the stories of residents and workers of the Williston area. All residents and workers in this area are invited to participate. The project will document the experiences of workers and residents whose lives are being shaped and impacted by the oil boom. The stories collected will be archived and made available to the public at the State Historical Society of North Dakota in Bismarck.
On Wednesday, June 25, we will be at the Million Barrel Celebration in Tioga. We'll return to the ARC on Thursday, June 26.
The Bakken Oral History team will be doing interviews in New Town tomorrow, 18 June. We'll be back at the ARC in Williston at 4pm on Thursday (19 June).
