2010 Art and Change Grant – $2,500

Catherine will research, write and publish an 80-page illustrated booklet, Walking the East End. The booklet, begun more than a decade ago by her change partner, includes a walking tour and a history (to be expanded) describing a historic African American neighborhood in West Chester. Through the publication of the book, she hopes that the community will be rightly celebrated as a place of independence—one that began when the community was settled by free black men. The purpose of the booklet is to record the memories of the diminishing number of local residents and to document certain neighborhood landmarks in an area that is changing drastically. Catherine hopes the book and walking tour will draw new attention to this important historical area while also preserving the stories of its longtime residents.
