Program on interpreters training presented at historical society

Bringing history to life is not impossible when trained interpreters relate to visitors with stories and time-period conversation. Most of us have seen interpreters at Postville Courthouse, New Salem, the Davis mansion or other historic sites. Being an interpreter isn’t magic, but it takes practice and special skills to make it work.

Anne Mosley, Assistant Director, Lincoln Heritage Museum at Lincoln College, presented a program Monday night at the Logan County Genealogical and Historical Society on upcoming interpreters training. The opportunity could prepare several people to be interpreters for local, state or nation-wide historic sites.
