"Gathered at the Ohio River" is a 63-minute audio piece produced from interviews recorded in the 1990s by Talking Across the Lines for the Wheeling Spoken History Project. Co-sponsored by the Wheeling National Heritage Area Corporation and the National Park Service, this project recorded 160 local voices from diverse neighborhoods, ethnicities and industries. The Spoken History Project opened the door for citizen participation in this effort to reinvent Wheeling as a Heritage Area.
This piece is ideal for classroom and community education uses as well as personal enjoyment.
