The Filson Historical Society resides on the ancestral homeland of the Cherokee, Delaware, Miami, Osage, and Shawnee Nations. The Chickasaw, Quapaw, and other Native Nations have also called the land now known as Kentucky home. As a guest on these lands, I extend my respect and gratitude to the many Indigenous peoples, past and present, who have called these lands home.

Please do not feel obligated to respond outside of your work hours.
